But if its just looks - 996 is still fairly stunning!
Personally - I would go for the 999.

Really? The 999 handle better than the 996? Frankie didn't think so! More powerful - yes, but not delivered as well, but as for fun!! - my SPS was a lot more fun than my 996R (999 engine) - the power delivery was awesome - so I'd disagree with your point there too.
I think its time that all you 999 boys owned up!!!, I realise you you're all trying to maintain a decent resell price for your bikes and maybe they can be made into decent bikes, but they can't or won't be better than the 996 - no way.
Its like when Emile Heskey was at Liverpool and I defended him like mad, but once he'd left - he was a lazy, slow, overpaid,............
The SPS is an appreciating classic, the 999 is a depreciating stopgap.
Horses for courses maybe, but some nags just need to be put down!!
