my 986's PO confirmed that his 5000 fit. I saw his 5000 but we didn't lift the car. The 7000 has a minimum 3.5" height and its overall length is a little less than 73", so the 7000 physically fits under the car. We just did a quick measurement on our 2004 and it is ~54.5" from jacking centerpoint to jacking centerpoint. Overall tire to tire clearance at the bottom of the rocker panel is a little over 72 inches. Min-max rubber block spread on both the 5000 and 7000 is listed as 31.5" - 60". I measure ~5"+ from the garage floor to the bottom of the jack points. Only question remaining to confirm is relative positioning (in relation to the jack points) of the rubber pads in the lift frame rails. I can't confirm until I actually assemble the 7000 and perform a test lift, but it appears that the 7000 will fit ok. I'll post an update as soon as I perform the test lift.
