I thought over time I'd warm up to the new tailight design..
I still haven't.
Frankly, it "pulls down" the corners of the car and doesn't flow well with the rest of the design.
A 911 is about subtle compound curves and smooth humps. Sharp, angular lines that look like carry overs from a Japanese design just don't do it for me.

what are you talking about??!! the first lights seemed much more sharp and less flowing with the design.
These new light really make the rear flow IMHO
They tie up the hips above and the lower bumper parts underneath really effectively, while also making the car look updated and modern.

You're insinuating that the only "good" design is minimalist and utilitarian design...

It's one thing to create art that pleases the critics... It's quite another to create art that please the critics AND transcends to the masses... I'd wager that the latter is the greater achievement, and defines "timeless". Work that only high-brow intellectuals like will disappear just as quickly as bubble-gum-culture. So how much more relevant is it?

I know that Porsche is trying to integrate the drooping taillights on all their models, as was first seen on the Cayenne.

The 'old' style does look better ! The new ones have a style that is totally useless... The lights were already too big to my taste, now they are even bigger.
Can we retrofil the 997.1 lights to the 997.2 ?

I see that people with 997.1 find all sorts of faults with 997.2. And people who skiped 997.1 waiting for 997.2, like the new look very much. Not surprising at all Hehe

Get the TT.
Free your mind.
I fkn hate the TT wing and the "fabulous" TT exhaust apertures but now somehow I have zero interest in the NA cars no matter how much better they _look_. Just get a dark colored TT if you feel the same way I do about the TT looks.

awai08, I really like your tail lights modification than the one from the 997.2. Seems to flow much better (and it would also allow for the red stripe on the c2s).
