I looked at both, drove both. The downside to the cab is weight and I definitely felt it. If you are really an open air guy, get a cab and work around the rules.

I was indifferent, so I went with a coupe. It's a shame they aren't the same feel-wise because a nice cab is gorgeous! The cab we were looking at sure looked nicer. And the multi-layer tops were quiet and tight.

Btw, nice wheels make a world of difference on a cab. More so that on a coupe imho.

914 to 996? What a jump! You will miss the go kart feel, but love the power (and the brakes, shifting, heat, a/c, etc.)
