Default Other Advantages of B6 over B5 platform

Besides being WAY better looking, are there any other performance advantages to a B6 over the old B5 platform?

the big boat-like body and the extra couple hundred pounds help it get around corners a lot better from what i've seen...

I love mine for all reasons, the extra horse power, the extra chicks, the better looks. however, there is no real arguing that the older B5 is lighter. but cant we get carbon fiber hood and trunks?

Panzy, you aint gettin very chicks many soldier. And the b5 is alot sportier unless put body mods on like panda, and then its still not as sporty, I think MOST people thinkthe b5 is more of a sports sedan.

the b6 has a way stiffer frame, so it manages its extra weight well. I prefer the ride of the b6, prefer the style of the b5. I have one of each in my driveway... so it's a simple comparison for me.
