I was quite excited when I saw the pictures were available, but feel a bit disappointed now... It will be a great car without doubt. It will be more comfortable than my 997.1 for the long drives and quicker through the twisties.... Like someone said (not as ugly as 996 but not same excitement as for 997, which was right on), it has lost some of its 911 character.

Interior:

Likes: new center console and "clocks"

Dislikes: changed door panels (where are the classic storage spaces)

Exterior:

I just made a comparison for myself with the 997 GTS on the Porsche website and the latter one seems more natural, better proportioned and well rounded. I especially do not like the back of the new one...

Maybe it is just me not liking things to change  Congrats to Christian and others who recently bought a 997.2 

Maybe I will change my mind after having seen it in person @ Frankfurt
