Is it just me or has anyone else noticed this?
Weaver, I agree. I looked for several weeks at 996TT's before deciding to buy a 997TT. That "negative rake" look is in many 996TT's, but it seemed random to me. The rear springs may sag depending on the type of driving it's seen.

Matt (onewhippedpuppy) has a really nice silver 996TT for sale that does NOT have negative rake. If you want a 996TT, you should PM him. The 996TT is a LOT of car for the money.
