New Porsche 911

Looks much better than the 996 to me, they just need to bring back the old interior and air cool it

I think they're trying to fool us..if you look closely, the 997 healights aren't really round, they're the 996 with some sort of trim around it to make it look round. And that ass with those cheesy 996 lights is still hideous IMHO.

The good version of the 996 motors as used in the turbos, GTs, Rs etc. is a magnificent motor. Much better than the air cooled in every way.


This one is a 440hp GT3


The good motors are recognizable by the dry sump oil tank at the forward end of the motor.
