OK, I thought they quoted "curb weight" which to me implies something different, but I stand corrected.

I know a 996 weighs more than my 94 turbo which weighs 3120 pounds with half a tank of fuel.
!!!! Always amazed how much weight the later cars gained... The turbo2's are nice though.

(PO weighed mine @ 2490 w/no gas, tools or spare. 22 US galls of premium is ~140 #'s..)

I understand this was a comment about N/A vs N/A I added the info regarding the turbo as a comparison. If the turbo is slightly quicker than the 997S at speed then the CS must be slower.
Ah, gotcha, I follow you now.

Sounds to me like the 997 was just driving along against the S...
