Jasper and I were just conversing about the above. I must be going mental because i thought the early 998 (bip) motors were 996cc - but the tinternet seems to have other ideas - can anyone clarify ?! Just one of those useless trivia questions really !!

AFAIK 998's were,...well 998's!

The first tesstastretta was 998cc but in the 996R model - might be where the confusion arose from Nat.

998 BP and S were 998cc's. The 998R was 999cc's
