I like the wheels in black. The LEDs do look a little off, but I have to echo many of the sentiments above in that I am sure when driven and lived in for awhile, this car will be heralded as one of the best from our favorite car maker... well, until the gt3 and gt2 steal all the glory.

I think the 997 interior along with the seats and the whole dashboard is kick-***!!
Last week I drove a 997 for the first time(997s) and all I kept saying is that I cant imagine this car with 150 more hp!!!
And also, its hard to make opinions with the front end or any other angle of the 997TT; You gotta wait to see it in person.
All I can say is that a couple of weeks ago I saw a 997C4S and all I kept thinking was how sick that rear end was even without the wing..
The new turbo is gonna be sick!! Its gonna blow you away just like every other turbo did in the past when they hit the streets..

first off, every new generation turbo looked newer than the one that it replaced (minus 959). the 997tt does not. the thread is entitled "does anyone like the new 997TT" so im telling you that i dont like it. i dont have to clarify "IMO" b/c everyone in their right minds knows its my opinion. if it wasnt, then it would be listed as a fact in a porsche spec pamphlet. the 964 never "blew me away" neither did the 80's run of turbos. i always liked the 76 and 79 930 until the 993 came out. so you say that the "most important thing is that I like it" so im saying that i like the 996TT and i dont like the 997tt becasue aesthetically it looks bad...."and thats that". geez how old are you anyway
