Love the exterior especially the shorter front overhang. Interior sucks. As though Ford bought Porsche and implemented old jaguar design. (Sorry but same is true of Panamera)

This car is gorgeous and I want one. For everyone who is saying it is too big, doesn't look good, bad interior, blah blah blah. I think you are just trying to rationalize keeping your wonderful 997 instead of dropping 120K on a new 911. You know you want one. Yes...you do.

Mostly, it seems fine. But I am not very happy with the very heavy-looking bottoms of both the front and rear overhangs. Also, I really do not like all the brushed aluminum in the inside. And finally, I am a bit surprised that the kept the flipper things instead of making gear-changing paddles standard.

Looks great, doesn't make the 997 look outdated, nice touches inside and out, still unmistakeably a 911. Of course we still have to drive one, but I'm willing to say right now that 99% of the complaining and speculation about the ruination of the 911 has been unnecessary.
