Really sweet, congrats!

That pic makes me very grateful that the 991 GT3 does not get US bumperettes.

If you look at both cars they are beautiful and then you also see how the 991 has evolved. Just cleaner and smoother looking but I am splitting hairs.

Congrats - would be interested in you review, in comparison

I agree Jimmy, just love the 991 that much more. From every angle too, it's a car that exudes far more presence. At least that's my .02.

Great looking car. If your experience is like mine you won't miss the 997.

The only problem is the 997 was set up so well by TPC and my lap times started to drop. But, really looking forward to seeing difference, both in handling and with paddles.

Photos were at Tysons Corner.

Congratulations! Car looks great - as does the 997.

I've yet to drive my 991 - can't wait! They're very different cars, I'm sure.
