yes, over 100k miles on each platform.
996 is harder to drive well. it suffers no fools
997.1 is not that much quicker than 996
997.2 is quite an upgrade over 996
not all 996 are beat
if you are really after uber clean NOS 996, I have them as well as several friends. but short of you offering INSANE money, we aren't willing to sell.
like MichaelB said, when driven well, you are one with the 996GT3 but the "look" is acquired taste.
