I actually don't like that picture.. The flow of the roof line to the rear bumper is way to rounded...

It's hard not to love a Porsche but I think I will stick with the 996 a bit longer.

Perhaps they used the profile of the Hunchback of Notre Dame to aid in the design.

I'm not a fan.

The upsloped line formed by the rear bumper connection to the rear fender is a visual distraction from the classic 911 curve.

Too many gadgets standard, questionable steering feel with the new rack and pinion, mulitiple personality suspension, and a Cayenne interior...the new "997GT" is just that much more removed from what a real sports car should be.

I love it! But I must ask, Darren where and how do you get all of these pictures of the 997?! I only wish I were that lucky to spot them!
