The car on TG was a Mk2 recently introduced. It is ;-
1] Softer sprung
2] Less focussed
3] Easier to drive
4] Mass produced, order driven until end 2nd qtr of 2004.
Probably end up with 3000+
5] Has 15BHP more, is 0.2 quicker to 60MPH is 0.9 quicker to 100MPH and is 1MPH quicker on top speed. 190 vs 189 MPH !!

My car is a Mk1 intro in 1999 and built until late 2000

1] Only 1800 in world
2] 383 RHD 106 in UK
3] Very focussed track day/ race car
4] Nervous on the road until 100 mph +
5] Believed to be the natural succesor of the great RS range i.e. 964RS and 993RS both highly focussed race cars for homologation
6] Was a not insignificant
