Hi.
I am a long time reader here, but this is my first post because now I have finally gone and seen a couple 996:s that I'm considering buying. A manual C2 with factory aerokit is what I'm looking for but it's proving to be hard to find. Anyway... There's a potential car for sale (without the aerokit) but it's a North America-version. I know there is some differences in suspension (softer if I'm correct) and of course the bumberettes on the rear. The suspension is easy to change and probably isn't standard anymore anyway but I've read somewhere that there are some differences in the engines between the NA and ROW versions. Something to do with emission testing. Is this true and if it is what are the differences? Also do the differences matter considering longetivity or maintenance?
I've tried searching but have found very little on this. Only a mention in some US-forums.
Hello again and thank you in advance.
