    Is there a possibility that the 997 turbo will be rear wheel

    drive? I have heard loads of journalists rave about the level of mechanical grip that the 997 possesses. Also the turbo is a fore-front for new and amazing things in terms of technology and performance. RWD will also solve the power-to-weight ratio problem without having to have 500 hp (but that would still be nice). The 911 is no longer the widow maker that it once was and maybe its time to return it to its purer roots...

    that is true. but is it necessary for even the turbo to have AWD? I would still think that the turbo could be more of a BT car and the GT2 a everyday ubercar.
