Same, I don’t care what the figures say, the old ones look tiny on the road, the new ones are massive

Yeah, that's basically the upshot of it and I'm surprised there's not been a much more conclusive picture posted yet which shows it.integrale_evo wrote: ↑Tue Feb 08, 2022 3:49 pm Same, I don’t care what the figures say, the old ones look tiny on the road, the new ones are massive
Counting the mirrors as part of the width doesn't really work as those early ones were very much on the jug-eared side of things.

I've definitely got a photo somewhere of my 996 next to a 991 if that helps ?

Re: 992 GT3 Touring
I guess it’s a bit like the old vs new defender. If you drew a box around them to their max dimensions there wouldn’t be much in it, but it’s the way the vehicle fills that box which makes it look / feel a lot bigger.
On the 964 the rear bumper sticks out quite a long way behind the lights / engine cover. Push those out to the same length and make the bumper flush, lift the engine cover a bit higher and suddenly the car looks a lot bigger without actually being any longer end to end.

Re: 992 GT3 Touring
For some reason it wasn't on my phone so I had to dig through my laptop instead. And I thought the two cars were facing the same way but they're not. Sorry. It was nearly ten years ago that I took the pic.....Ascender wrote: ↑Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:38 pmI'd like to see that just out of curiosity if you can find it?Sundayjumper wrote: ↑Tue Feb 08, 2022 6:43 pm I've definitely got a photo somewhere of my 996 next to a 991 if that helps ?
