I saw an '08 [Ruby Red Metallic] T4S at a dealer last month and it looked very nice!

It's shocking how Porsche keeps evolving so quickly - from the 996 to the 997 was amazing, and now the updated 997 is a huge step from when the 997 debuted, what will they come up with next?

That Ruby Red actually looks quite stunning in person- I don't think it photographs well though. Very nice cab- How's the driving impression overall? How's the PDK feel?

You know what would be hot, aftermarket LED-style light assemblies for 997.1 cars.

I agree, it's kind of fast in my opinion. I'm also with others on this one as well. The car looks a bit too GT like, it's not really sporty anymore. It's turning more into a GT now. It sits high, the stance is very aggressive, etc.

Call me crazy, but I dont like the new front bumper. ALothough I do like the LED idea, I still prefoer my 07 C2S look.

The back, though, looks great

I'd have to agree that the 997 v1 front is a cleaner more classic look. Maybe they could have left the "turbo" look for the S models lke they did with the 996. The back looks cleaner and more classic though. Regardless, I'm more impressed with the engines than anything else.

I agree that it's too classy. It's still okay though.
