Default The New Porsche 997



I personally love the way they brought back the "classic" look of Porsche with the rounded headlights.

In my opinion the 993's were one of porches best body styles, glad they're bringing it back

I'm with you guys, I definitly do not like the boxster headlights. 993 911s are my favorite too. Last of the aircooled.

I wonder what they will do with engines. If a flat six isnt offered, its not a 911. Although Im worrying that the limits of the 6 cylinder are coming closer. I wonder what a flat 8 would sound like?
