Wrong seats and afaik you can only open a Clubsport hatch with the cable inside the car. Nice 968, but I wouldn't want those decals plastered on the sides, if it wasn't the real deal.

The hatch did have the cable, it was checked..🙂
 
It's got the key hole under the hatch too, which the CS didn't have. It's all a lot of speculator nonsense anyway, a S2 is lighter than the 968 Clubsport. The 968 was too expensive compared to Jap competitors, and Porsche hacked all the spec out of the standard 968 to try and shift them. I like Pole Positions, but that large white lettering on the head rest looks well chavy.

Alas I have little knowledge of 968's, the handle was pointed out to me as making it real. 🙂
 
When I couldn't find a 944 turbo that I wanted to buy, I started looking at 968's. I still think the 968 could have been an amazing car, if Porsche had fitted a turbo to the 3.0 16v engine. But the engine in my lightly modified E36 BMW 328 Coupe felt much better than a standard 968, so I waited for the right 944 turbo to come along.

I almost bought a mint E36 M3 Evo too. With a nicer engine and around 320 bhp it was faster than a 944 turbo and sounded better. But the handling wasn't as good.
