997 Design
A lot of rumors and camoflaged pictures were available on the internet over the past few months.
Some people even thought that camoflaged 997 were the final thing, making pretty bad comments about the 997.
To be honest: I expected a more spectacular design for the 997 at the beginning but after I saw the first picture a few months ago and after thinking over the whole thing over and over again, I have to say that the 997 proves to be a very nice and refined product.
The 997 pictures I have now (two 997 Carrera and two 997 S pictures) show a perfect evolution of the 996 design. To some people the 997 might look like a 996 at first look. But the 997 is actually the perfect evolution of the 996 design and in my opinion the most beautiful and perfectly designed 911 ever built by Porsche.
I'm pretty sure that some people will be disappointed with the 997. I'm also sure that some people will say to themselves "thanks god, I bought a 996". But after the first 997 will show up on the street after July 17th, I'm pretty sure people will start to love the 997. The form flow of the 997 is just perfect, it is a very modern interpretation of the classic 911 design.
Some people will start again with speculation about a 998 and some people even might view the 997 as a facelift and not a new model. But try to look very carefully at the body and shape of the 997 and I'm sure that after a while, you'll see the difference between the 996 and 997.
The 997 is actually good for 996 owners because people on the street won't probably see immediately a difference.
That said, the 997 is a great product and I'm looking forward to drive one as soon as possible.
