The nose kinda reminds me ot a beetle.... The overall look doesn't really radiate sportscar. It's official Porsche has given into the corporate crap all the other manufacturers gave into aswell! It's judgementday I tell you!

Thats' what you get when you sleep with VW. I thought they made a return of the center reflector, now it's gone again?
I really think they are just hard pressed for ideas. Being in the car business requires one to stay fresh and new to keep the public's interest, while at the same time, the essential 911 design needs no changing. When they mess with it for the sake of change, the result is bound to be crumby. The 911 design reached it's peak within the last ten years. After this, there is really nowhere sensible to go.

Hah! I see more than a hint of Audi ( as filtered through VW ) in those design modifications, the wheels too. I swear, they are so shameless. And this is just a 996 styling touch up, just wait till the complete redesign is in order. :roll: Don't you just love shifters that feel like your grabbing someone's weewee? lol!

haha... i dont mind the looks. sure its not as classy but still sporty. i just dont know if i would like the feeling of driving... "stick". haha. whats goin on with the phone? i thought things like that were done away with.
Someone tell me how this 997 design tinkering is an improvement over the classic 911. :roll: The nose seems too long, like Firebird Trans Am long. There is no way it looks cooler than a 993 or 996. The front in particular is far too busy for a 911. The thing they get wrong is that they smooth out a design to the point that where the classic original form is diluted.
