Smile The difference between a 987S and a 997S.

They have different chassis as these photos illustrate.

I'll take the one with the Mexico Blue exterior. I wonder what the interior looks like

By the way, which one is the 987 & which one is the 997? You know from the front all Porsches are hard to tell apart, hahaha.

Now that you mention the weight difference, it looks more like a 911 next to a Cayenne, hahaha... I'll take the Mexico Blue 911. She'd look nice inside my Cobalt Blue 996, lol.


... BTW, this thread was facking random, but great nonetheless.

Guys, guys....I'm a purist. You know that they drive differently. Therefore, you'd need to be parked in both garages, er. I mean have both parked in your garage.
