      I mean the 996 and even the 992 Turbo have heavier engines, transmissions and AWD systems than this 4 cylinder FWD haldex based estate car;
      Those components alone account for 60%+ of a car’s mass, not to mention that we now have vastly more advanced computers and alloys that allow weight to be shed without negatively impacting Chassis rigidity!

      No more yellow and the egg shape gets cut off by the front bumper...honestly in those models I don't see the egg shape at all anymore and I find it just looks slick.
      I would honestly pick a 996 Carrera 4 or Turbo over a 997 (same variant) because I think the adjusted 996 headlights fit better with this model (they're mostly the same except from the front)

    The manual 996 turbo’s don’t have a soft limiter and are a damn sight quicker off the line. The tiptronic will also try to set off in 2nd as default, clicking the button down to first after pulling up or putting it in drive will have it ready in first and help off the line, they have to realise you’re going for it and quickly drop to first otherwise. Wonderful things.

    Ea888 3 gen tuning is phenomenal. You get nearly 100bhp from a remap alone. It you fit fuel pump on the Skoda it’s over 500bhp.
    The engine has direct and indirect fuel injection and the turbo are basically bolted straight into the exhaust manifold so little lag.
    Dsg with clutch updated will be good for about 550bhp, 500Ibs/ft.
