WOW! http://www.autogespot.com/nl/viewimages.php?id=c369601092011200813
To me it sometimes looks a little caricatural, this 991, I'll have to reserve judgement until I see it in real life though...

Yes, because they've seen the light now they hired rapper Swizz Beatz to consult them about their image. Not to mention their latest 'Freddy Mercury Edition' Evora.
Criticize Porsche all you want, but Lotus is (sadly) on a whole other level lately.

As mentioned before several times, I will be attending press days at Frankfurt. I plan to post pics, impressions, and do a video feed or two.
I do have an interview set up with a longtime and knowledgeable Porsche Exclusive representative, and will be asking him general questions about new Exclusive items particular to the 991. If anyone has any questions you want me to ask, post here or send me a PM.
I will also be seeking other interviews, so send along any questions you might have on other subjects.

Ask him about the rumored Clubsport model (base Carrera stripped out) and if the 991 Targa will have the retro styling!

Same troll (Marius Vasiliu) from Galati in Romania.
His posts (and consequential posts) will be deleted/edited.
Please do not respond to him.
He clearly doesn't get the message that he is not welcome here.

Wonderbar,
Could you please ask him if Porsche intend to follow the simple rule used successfully by other manufacturers for years of allowing a customer to choose a colour for deviating stitching using one code not the multitude of PITA codes used on previous models?
Also I'd be very interested to know if deviating colour for carpets, headliner, door and seat inserts is going to be available from the start of production?
I'd also be interested to know if there are plans to expand the customisation options on Panamera (deviating stitching in particular) as it's currently restricted to sports car models only.
Many thanks.

Since the 991 C2S and 997.2 C2S are the same width, I would expect the 991 C4 and C4S to be wider. IMO we just need clarification as to how much extra width there will be. It may or may not be 44mm again.
The 997 in the above image is a C4S.
And now thinking about it, as pretty as the 991 is, no WAY I'd take one of them over something like this!
De gustibus non est disputandem. So while I absolutely respect your opinion, mine is, Ugh! Gaudy.

Looking forward to your pics, vids, comments !
997.2 C2S, PDK, -20mm
So far I do find this to be the best combo.
I would just make the inside black + black front lights + black rims.
The aerokit is too much , the duck tail is just perfect 8 at first I was not convinced, but it looks great on these shots )
997.2 C2S, PDK, -20mm
If one wants a 991 that looks pure , then it's better without the duck tail and the front spoiler . If you want to add a sporty look, then the duck tail/front spoiler is there to break the smooth lines and give it a harder look.
But , I must also say that I do like the pure lines of any base 911 , as they are timeless and never seem to look bad at any angles. With the sport kits , sometimes the car can look ' too much'' or with design faults.
I find the 997 4S to bee too large for example. Large for no purpose. It is over done to me .
