I have a 2003 S. I wish it had the digi speedo in the center (looking at a HUD to fix this) and the dual row IMS. However the changes made to the oil protection tubes as a component part of the valve lifter housing and sealed to the cylinder head cover with formed oil seal rings made to the 2003+ models is a big plus to me.

With the cluster change I'm told the digital part is more reliable. The 2003+ models have a glass rear window with defroster. My car has no electronic driver nannies either, except ABS. 2003+ models Porsche also got rid of the amber in the front and rear lights, which looks much better to me personally.

In my book the 2003+ models is where Porsche stepped up the 986 game.
