991 & 997 Side By Side Comparison Pics

Got my car serviced at Walter's Porsche out here in So. Cal and they had a new black 991 'S' on the lot. Took the opportunity to take some side by side pics with my car. Sorry for the lack of quality, taken on an iphone. The 911 definitely has presence. I love it in black, and it's size difference is pretty apparent in person. The other thing that really caught my eye as well was the swooping windshield and how much lower the angle is than the 997.

Agreed! Not a great comparison

Guys, this isn't meant to be a stock for stock comparison as my car is obviously the complete opposite from stock and there are already plenty of stock for stock 997/991 comparisons out there in the press and forums for those that need to see that. This is just for entertainment value, modified 997 vs stock 991.

This was more for me to see how my personal car would par up to the latest and greatest. I was worried that the 991 would be so drastically different that it would eclipse my 997 and make me feel the need to upgrade. After seeing the comparison pictures though I am happy with how the 997 is aging and pleased to see my ol' girl keeping up with the new kid on the block (aesthetically at least).

...and if you still haven't seen a stock 997/991 comparison picture:
