Those rear lights really wrap around to the side. Not sure I'm feeling them yet.

Those tail lights are very ugly.
The rear of the car is drifting away from a clean 911 look

IF there's a 2016 production then I MIGHT have a chance at a GT3, I've paid the deposit and on the list...

Mmmmm...

- Centered exhaust pipes, guess GT3 now not unique in that respect
- shorter rear deck lid above deployable spoiler
- front end seems shorter but it may be wide angle of camera lens. though the front end has a contour like the GT3
