Looks amazing.
I am loving it right now.

I do want to see the anti rollbar and its location though. I heard it pops up in case of accidents.

I agree, nothing spectacular. I think Porsche has lost its luster

are you looking at the same car? Whats with the sharp looking lip behind the rear seats? They couldn't devise a better way to retract and hide the top?

It's a pretty HUGE stretch to compare the looks of a G-spyder to that. The 997 i'm sure is a better daily driver but for shock and awe, it is far too tame.
