both cars are used.. 997.1 is in new condition with only 120Km.
the 997.2 is with 14500.. also big difference..

i am not sure about all the options included.. i can see the 997.2 has exanded lether, sport chrono, sport suspension and turbo wheels.

997.1 has sport chrono as well and i think better seats.

i would be happy if you guys could tell me about options the cars have/dont have..
here are the links for the cars, first 2 are 997.1 and the other is 997.2

thanks !

thanks for the answers so far.

of course, i also like to have the latest design and going crazy when a car i bought is been replace for something way different (like with my E85 Z4, my last car) this anyway wont happen with a 911 in the next 10 years or so ..

but two main issues-
a. the 997.1 is in brand new condition and 997.2 is 14500km ..

b. regardless of the condtion, isnt the 997.1, beening a "S" model (nevermind the AWD) is a sportier built car? brakes and so on ?

thanks !

Yes, it does have better brakes but you'd only really notice that if you tracked the car. The base Carrera brakes are still very good.

One of the main differences between a C2 and a C2S is PASM which this C2 has anyway. The .2 C2 also has almost the same power as the .1 C2S so really you'll not be missing out on much or at all. 14,500km's is nothing - it's only just run in.

Like others on the forum I've had both a .1 and a .2. I'd not take a .1 given the choice.
