Try again, on both parts.

The 2012 991 weighs 3,042lbs.
The 2011 997 weighs 3,075lbs.
The 1999 996 weighs 2,901lbs.
The 1998 993 weighs 3,064lbs.

So no, it's not 300lbs. heavier.

And for reference, a 1992 964 weighs 3,031lbs. Wow, so the brand-new 911 weighs in at 11lbs. more than one from 20 years ago, while being larger, more powerful, and more livable, and somehow that's "heavy"?
