This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.
0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.
Leading evidence: 'best looking 996' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'best looking 996' (1 discussions; 0 report identifying it and 1 suggest it). No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
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.

This may have been asked a bunch of times, but I've been searching for a C4S, and I think I have seen some 05's, but they were 996 style... Did it take them a year to do the C4S?
Finally ready to get a 911, have to have a C4S!!!!!

yes the 05 C4S was carry over 996 as was the Turbo
You will find this is somewhat common for Porsche, they have done this in the past, not just the 996 to 997 cars. They were still selling 993 turbos and cabs i belive when the 996 first appeared in 1998
I think the 996 C4S is unique with the turbo front, wide body without the turbo holes, red stripe in the back, and is the best looking 996, even better than the 997 C4S which looks like any other 997. But, I may just be "slightly" biased
here are some pics of my previous 05-c4s with the aero kit...beautiful car. the 997 c4s are nice as well imo. they are actually wider than the 996 c4s and tt.
Looks like I am attracting all the C4S owners... Is it lower than a regular 996? I have very steep rounded curbs in my driveway. My wifes CLK430 will hit the spoiler in front if you back out straight.
