    The 991 is still a 911, so don't expect revolutionary design changes.

    The WildSpeed photos look nice but they aren't right.

    In all the pictures I have seen it looks more like a GT. If Porsche is in fact going to introduce a sort of 928 why not keep the 911 dynamics that most of us love intact. I'm really hoping that the wheelbase change doesn't dilute the 911 experience.

    What's your take RC?

    It still hard to imagine that someone sayd that it will be more futuristic... at least in design... the only thing i imagine futuristic in the new 991 is the rear and (probably) front ligths... and maybe a more muscular/agressive look...

    First time I see convertible pictures with little wrinkles in the soft-top. For me a clear sign, that it will end up with a soft top again!

    Evo magazine: "NEW PORSCHE 911 PROTOTYPE AT THE NURBURGRING"

    Porsche-991-Nurburgring-testing_June-2010.jpg

    (5 July 2010)

    Posted by: Henry Catchpole

    "Following my blog last week with the Zonda setting its Nurburgring lap record, I thought I'd post a couple more videos of cars that I saw.

    When we drive a really good car very hard, and yes it's frequently a Porsche, we sometimes say that it feels like someone has been there before us. What we mean is that the test drivers have obviously spent a lot of time really honing the way the car behaves not just up to but beyond the limit of grip so that it feels natural to drive it very hard. As if to prove this point I saw a 911 prototype testing at the Nurburgring. There were plenty of other manufacturer prototypes circulating the 'Ring but none was driven with quite such commitment as this. I'm sure the driver actually enters the Kleine Karussell sideways (once the S Class is out of the way)."

    It doesn't have the typical PSE "trombone" sound, if anything it's sounds more like a GT3/GT3RS than a regular Carrera, which is a good thingSmiley

    Welcome!

    Sound is very important. Have a listen to an air-cooled 911 and tell me that it doesn't speak to you. A nice engine note can make the overall driving experience that much more engaging.

    hybrid GT3 will probably make it to production giving even more models in the next 911. I hear the Targa may be dropped though...

    I agree with you... hybrid tech will be featured in the next 991 line up. I just hope they will start the teaser marketing soon like what they did for the Panamera.

    I am still having the feeling that the 991 coupe and the 991 convertable we see in those pictures are not both 991's ... subtle differences in the lines under the camo (for example the shape of the inlets in the front grille, and the way the headlights are taped off make me doubt... might be two different platforms they're testing...
