     Nice work Carrara 


    Re: Porsche 991 GT3 to include GT1 motorsport engine... Thread Closed

    From my observations, it appears that the front lights' lens will be recessed at the bottom and more upright (like the 240Z pic below, but less so). The change is not in the 911 design DNA. Classic (pre 993) lenses were upright, but never recessed.

     I hope (and pray) that it will came like Autobild renderings.

    I`m not much confortable with this latest pics.

    This would be a pretty new 911 (front and rear):

    Very nice find, noticed that the blue car has a central radiator unlike the yellow one.  Have they gone back to needing one for cars with an automatic (PDK) gearbox?

    Both cars have the 4 tailpipes, so I'd assume they have the same engine.

     Well that's it, we know for sure how its going to looks now. I like the back, hope the front doesn't disappoint.

     Comparing the previous photo, could this be the line from the headlight

     There are a few reenteam members that already saw the new 991... can we be relaxed with the headlights? 


    Re: Porsche 991 GT3 to include GT1 motorsport engine... Thread Closed

     PJD, the line you drew will be the interior of the headlight. Surrounding it will be a thicker black/grey striped oval frame, much like on the 997.

    Thanks Carrara. I like those fog lights..

    I love it! I am actually truly excited about this car. So far I haven't seen any part of it that I don't like. I wonder if a glass top will be an option. Sounds like the Targa will be radically different and more like the original. Porsche nailed it this time!

    Re: Porsche 991 GT3 to include GT1 motorsport engine... Thread Closed

    From what I've seen, the tail lights will be without the reverse strip showing, instead it will be hidden in the light like the blinker. It will probably be on the bottom. Take away the reverse(light)strips at the top in the photo, and there is the 2012 Porsche 911 991!

    As you can see here, there is no room for the reverse light at the top, that space is for the rear running lights. I'm positive it will be located below the blinker:) BTW Where did these pics come from? Is there a video?


    Re: Porsche 991 GT3 to include GT1 motorsport engine... Thread Closed

     ^^ There's no video. The pictures were taken by a spy photography company and then sold to automotive presses.

    Re: Porsche 991 GT3 to include GT1 motorsport engine... Thread Closed

    Thats it! There is the 2012 Porsche 911 991! Great renderings Wildspeed!!


    Re: Porsche 991 GT3 to include GT1 motorsport engine... Thread Closed

     Great job Smiley.

    Now that we know what 991 looks like, let's start rumors on 991.2 Smiley.

    Yes, but where did you find the photos carrara?

    Re: Porsche 991 GT3 to include GT1 motorsport engine... Thread Closed

     Did he do any of the front?


    Re: Porsche 991 GT3 to include GT1 motorsport engine... Thread Closed

    Wow... those foglights are weird... is that going to be the trick now: misaligning the foglights with the inlets on the 911.1, and then fixing that "mistake" with the facelift?

    The 991 looks so much better with the european style license plate (top) than the US (bottom) plates. Overall I like the new design, but expected a little bit more.

    My observations: it looks better on brighter colors; I am worried about the rear lights not to be too thin; what the hell happened with the front fog lights???!!!! 997 grew a moustache?????!!!! I hope NOT!!!

    There is no try. Just do.

    Looks like the true shape of these lights will be quite different.

    Re: Porsche 991 GT3 to include GT1 motorsport engine... Thread Closed

    And I forgot: the rear bumper looks too fat. I hope the rear lights are thicker to minimize that perception. I really hope Autobild renderings are correct....

    seen tha car in the back of the picture ... Smiley

    991:

    not sure about the headlights (very boxster/cayman to me)
    do not like the GPS antenna on back and the hight of the back

    Like the rear lights, the tight hips, classic side line and side mirror placement

     

    Judging from the yellow car, the sunroof is either very big or it is a Targa. I would think the fromer. What do u think?


    Re: Porsche 991 GT3 to include GT1 motorsport engine... Thread Closed

    uffff.... I was worried the 991 looks much better than the 997......  I believe the interior will be nice - externally I am not impressed so far at all...


    Re: Porsche 991 GT3 to include GT1 motorsport engine... Thread Closed

    Great catch - the car I've seen last Friday had exactly the same camo as those, but it was a convertible.

    As I said - rear looks different - rear lights are very slim and outstanding. BUT whole car looks like an 997 - the average person will not notice the difference. The front bumper doesnt grow on me at all - to much 997. The lights - as far as I see there is not bigger evolution yet to see. So it might have some edges exactly where the hood and fender line meets the lights, but basicly it looks very similar to the 997, too.
