I dont know what it is but i cant say that i like it.. The front bumper witha ll of those lights and the fog buldge on the side, the wheels and the rear bumper with the exhaust in the bumper, im not really a fan!
BUT, i do have to say in white it makes it look 100x more appealing for some reason

EVERYONE STAY AWAY FROM WHITE ... IT's MINE ALL MINE!!!
It's a boring color anyway and if you're gonna get a TURBO you should all stick to green, yellow, black, or SILVER ... DON'T waste $100K on a WHITE car? ... It's sooo BORING ... If your gonna spend that dough you might as well get SCREAMING YELLOW so people can SEE you! ... Imagine if it SNOWS.

Thanks, that's the first non camoed high res pics I've seen of the 997TT. Lookswise I don't see it as an improvement over the 996TT. It looks a bit busier but otherwise, it's just so similar looking to the 996TT.
Compared to the modena to the 430 generation switch, which I think was a good step step forward, I think porsche has failed to make the next generation better looking.
The best comparison I can think of, is that the 996TT is to the 997TT like the CS is to the F430 (as far as looks only). The 997TT is busier looking and more detailed than its predecessor but not necessarily a better looking car. Likewise the F430 is more detailed than the CS, but they are on the same level as far as aesthetics go. Some days I actually prefer the CS over the F430.
What I'm really curious to read about is 6speed members driving impressions. I'm anticipating as much of a performance improvement as the 997 carrera had over its predecessor.

painted rockers for you
I did some painting, then added some magic so that it was tough to see the changes.
