Re: another 997 photoshop
Looks like a "lowrider" to me, LA Gangs salute Porsche. 
Do you see any serious business man driving around in such a car? I don't. The second most important market for Porsche is Germany and in Germany even the current 997 design is almost too much.
There will be an aero kit, maybe even two versions. Why don't people just wait? First 997 cars are going to customers RIGHT NOW, this is a new model and we should give it at least a year or two until more options are available.
And for those who aren't happy with Porsche aerokits, tuners like Gemballa, Techart and others will surely offer various body kits for every kind of taste.

PASM or "SPASM?"

yeah, gives new meaning to PASM, should be called "SPASM" when the car starts hopping up and down.
Amazing how ridiculous things can look with such slight changes.
Be careful making any mods; other Porsche owners will become alienated.

personally if it was slightly higher the car would be much more nice that the standart. If you see in the pic of the stock one, the car looks a bit too ......mmm....new beetle?
Looks good for a track car, looks too "lowrider" and impractical for a street car.
"Beetle look" is fine with me. It's a tribute to the Master, Dr. Ferdinand Porsche.
Just my $.02

Oh yes, sorry if I confused the 997 as a track car
It is a bit sad to hear from people critics on a lowered car (ok, this one may look excessively low ) than may be a too high car...But may be is me who interpretates sportcars differently...
my apologies...
nothing you said or think is a problem for me, you make perfect sense.
maybe the road conditions where you are are nice and smooth, here in the NE I'm almost dreading the day when I slam into a pothole or f up the spoiler.
Low cars up here look like they belong on a track; a regional thing.
