They look like 993 sport seats.

The 986/996 interior has never seemed worthy of a Boxster , much less a $120K Turbo - we had hoped for things being made right with the 997 . Instead , things have gotten worse. I've seen more sculpted interior door panels on Chevy commercial duty vans . Reminds me of the door panels on THREE different tow trucks ( don't ask how I know ) .

Lets just cross our fingers that the turbo will be different.
There won't be a 997 Turbo.

I loved my 993, but when I see them now (except the Turbo S) they look outdated... You will be right, they will sell because they are the current model of the 911... Posers don't care either way, I see plenty of them in my area. That interior reminds me of an Audi sedan....

I will wait on the 998 turbo... More power and truly a new platform... and I suspect that many Turbo owners will wait also.

I think Porsche had their B-team working on the 997, while the A-team was creating the CGT and 998. Looking at it again, maybe it was their D-team - someone give 'em the hat.

front bumper lights & beetle headlights look like ****~ Makes the front looks so busy.

Interior looks so damn 80s (look at the door handles & speakers). Why they put an infiniti clock in there???


Did Porsche hire Bangle????


I'm so done w/Porsche, just like I'm done w/BMW.
