Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I remember reading along the way that the 997 is slightly wider than the 996. I recall it wasn't by much though. An inch or so maybe?

Opps... In reviewing the first, I orignally read it as 996 C4S vs. 997 C4S.

This was one of the many things I considered when shopping for my future 911...decided to wait until the Spring....consolidating $$$ ;-). 996 C4S and 996TT width 72" vs 997 C4S width 72.91" As opposed to a 996 C2 69.7" and 997 Carrera or S at 71.2" Data can be seen at Edmunds(for old) or Porsche homepage(for new).

The 998 is going to be much wider, with dual rear wheels on each side to accommodate the additional weight of the new "flat 10" engine. Here is a spy photo.
