I like!! however the front grill is begging for something different. It's like they saved that for last and ran out of time. That thing has some fattys on the back

Yeah, there's too much going on with that front bumper...also, it has the cool round headlights, but why is there a sort of silhouette of the shape of the old ones around them???

Do you guys think that the final revision is still going to have those huge side vents?

I really don't like the headlights compared to the current 996's. The current ones have an aggresive look to them, but these seem weird.

i think with a badass front bumper that car would be untouchable in my list of favorite cars!

i really like how they kept the traditional lines and just spiced it up a little rather than making it look like all futuristic and stuff like the other new cars out there these days

the headlight surrounds look like a disguise measure. the whole front end looks disguised to me, in fact.

Old photo... Porsche has good security in stuff like this... not like GM... we got to see the photos of the new Vette from a guy that took photos while they were shooting a commercial...

Anyhow, coming back to this one... the only confirmation is the round lights "993" styled... not much more... can't wait to see the real thing.

There is a better photo (probably another computer enhanced one...) in the 993 forum:

Hey guys,
I just remembered, I picked up this issue of "sport.auto" in Paris last year because i loved the new look of the new 911 so much. It has an article on it, as well as the RUF Boxter 3600S. I don't have a scanner, so I took some photos just now. Enjoy!
