Not a Club Sport, but looks very nice all the same. However, 911 Heaven have a lower miles speed yellow car, for a little bit more, so I would just compare the 2.

If you mean the difference between the 2 cars the yellow one has fewer miles, but I expect what you asking is the difference between Club Sport & Comfort Spec.

Club Sport has pukka race seats usually (but not always) nomex covered, a lightweight single mass fly wheel, emergency cut off switch, full factory roll cage, usually a fire extinguisher & Schroth harnesses. In short they are more track focussed, not that the Comfort will be too shabby round a track either.

The other thing is that the Club Sports are a fair bit rairer & therefore less prone to further depreciation. Hard to find though.

I think you'll find that performance wise in the real world there are no differences between the CS and the Comfort. The good thing about a left hooker is the size of the fuel tank is about 30 litres bigger. Helpful, particularly on track days.

"Comfort" is a bit of a joke really as instead of plastic you get leather finishes inside or leather instead of nomex on the bucket seats(assuming you are not unlucky enough to have the soft sports seats options). You do however, get side airbags in the comfort. Not sure about windows but I assume that all 996's had electric lifters and I think pretty much all of the CS's had A/C as well

I am sure that I saw the Zanzibar red one on Ebay a few weeks ago and that as usual it did not meet it's reserve.

Andy, what colour is your CS and can I enquire where you bought it from.

Most CS's do have a/c, I think they all have leccy windows, mine has manually adjustable door mirrors (oh the hardship). I got my Arctic Silver one as a private sale via P/Heads - may still be listed - I'll look in a minute & no I didn't pay full asking - nearly though.

My Comfort also has the manual mirrors - not a problem if you have a passenger, bit a right royal PITA if not. It's a small flaw in what is otherwise a great motor car.

Was yours the car being sold by Dave in the underground garage in Islington?

Steve????

Here's mine

www.pistonheads.com/sales/64921.htm

The seller didn't really know what he had. Clubman Sport indeed - I was looking for all the nice wooden door framing & when it didn't have asny I got the price reduced :-)

If you think LHD is an option, you could do worse than check this one out.

Paul say's it's an exceptionally tidy car. Not as good a buy as mine though :-)

That's the one. Just behind Pentonvile nick - very salubrious area with a fine collection of mountainous speed humps that probably contributed to Dave selling the car. Took about 1/2 hour to get 500 yards away from the garage.
