997 GT3's are narrow body. Only the GT2, Turbo, C4 and GTS are widebody.

The GT3 also uses a 12" wide wheel at the rear, unlike the Carreras that are anywhere from 10-11 depending on model and spec. The wider rear wheel flattens the contact patch for better grip and less sidewall flex and allows the running of 305 width stock tire but up to a 325 width.
