I sat in one today also. The outside looks better in person than in pictures. The front has a nice long slant to it. the wheels look nice as do the ceramic brakes. The interior is the nicest "911" interior i have seen. Yes folks my 928 interior still has a little more luxury (including nicer leather). The seating position is better than other 911's and the overall fit and finish is fitting of the price. The exhaust note at idle is still very tame. Oh and the steering wheel was not ugly at all but it did obscure the very top of the tach the way it was adjusted in this car. I liked the sport seats very much. There was a new GT3 10 feet away that i also checked out, made comparisons about the interior easy. Both very nice but not as cool as the shark.
