Bav Motorist, here's some mildly interesting info on the 987 rollbars:
The 987 roll-over bar is now higher and further back than on the 986. It is made of austenitic stainless steel, a special stainless steel alloy that offers maximum strength, and is manufactured using IHPF technology (internal high-pressure forming). This new manufacturing method and an optimised design have permitted a 30 % increase in strength.
These measures combined with the new seats and their higher headrests have permitted a further improvement in the already impressive passenger survival space of the previous model.
