I don't know if that is it for sure but it probably isn't far off.

THats one hell of a photoshop job...
I honestly prefer the 996 all in one integrated headlights than the 993 style one...The hood thoiugh is a welcome change (The gemballa one is too freakin expensive!!)

I like it, love the rear tail lights. But it need a better front bumper.

I like it a lot. The rear end of the car looks great. The lights look much better. I dont like the sculpted hood. I dont think the 997 will have a sculpted hood because they dont seem to be fitted to any cars pictured in the spy pics.

Chordate is an unknown quantity at this point
If thats what the 997 will look like, then Porsche will loose my next purchase. If you want that car, than buy a 993. The rear is not that bad, but much worse than the C4S, but the front... it looks so bad.

From the rumors I've heard, 997 does borrow some syling cues from the 993 style with one of them being the rounded, more upright front headlights.

By my preferences, I much prefer the back end of the 993TT, but the more agressive styling of the 996TT front end does the car more justice.

the fog light needs to be changed. i like current 996 model better. the weired thing is that people usually dislike the new model and after certain period they accepted it.
