I think there should be a comparison at 986faq.com but on the surface the biggest difference is the 03 will have a glass rear window where as the 01 has plastic. There are internal changes, the 03 has a glove box and a few other interior tweaks as well as mechanical ones. The only real downside to an 03 in my opinion is the CDR23 head unit, it works fine but there is no facility for an aux in for an ipod or the like as the system is all fiber based. There has been promises of an aftermarket add-on for years which seems to be almost here but it is expected to be a $599 option.

The 03 is probably still under warranty too which is nice, makes getting an extended warranty mich easier too as they like to sell them to you while you still have factory cover.

Chris.
