Default New 911 Pics Link

Last week (and into this) we have been hosting the international media introduction of the newest 911 by Porsche. They have staged a couple of cars around the Biltmore.

Here's a little scene of my 997S with a 1970 911S coupe (I think it may be one of Jerry's).

Great photos and thanks for sharing. Like others have said and I have to agree, they have to lose the full sentence written on the back of the Carrera S...... Just like they over did the Boxster Spyder lettering.

Thanks for sharing Edgy. I like them all, but love the early S. I'm silly like that.
The evolution to 991 is fluid; Porsche has done a great job over the years compared to other marques. So many cars have an identity crisis, and Porsche may have at one point long ago; This is good to see. I think it validates everything that came before and that makes the classics more relevent today. Maybe my 924S will be the next "must have" in Jerry's collection.

You can see the negative camber in the thread pic. Not sure if it is massive.

Saw the 991's in person at RR4. The pics don't do them justice. They def look better in person, but I'm on the fence about the interior. I'm sure they are awesome cars, however.

Heck, the Panameras look good to me now. Trying to talk my wife into selling her MB.
