This is a well written and reasoned post, thank you.

I am a great supporter of Porsche, but I do find myself a bit confused at the array of changes as each model evolves. Also, I do long for a real change in the design of the 911 series, one that is more daring than the gradual evolutionary change we have come to expect. Most particularly, I think the true high-end cars like the TT and GT2 need a more cohesive and exceptional design, not just an add-on approach to the basic Carrera. I believe high end buyers would pay the extra dollars to have their car look truly different, not just a Carrera with wider rims, vents, etc. I have not been able to shake my initial disappointment with the 997TT design when I saw it in Geneva at its launch. It looked pieced together, more like a modified 997 than a cohesive, exciting design.

In short, the TT and GT2 are fabulously engineered and performing cars that deserve a design to match.
