As everyone also knows every homologation race car employs a wing like the RS, so it fits the part.

Second, it follows function, not only does it do its job better than any other active decklid spoiler but it is most likely much lighter, not having to employ the motorized parts.


On topic:

I think the wider longer body is going to do wonders in increasing the sexiness of the 911. I'm already impressed from the stock photos at the aggressiveness of the base models without the GT3 bits. It definitely points to a future GT3/RS model that will look stunning.
You're preaching to the choir, but again, I am hoping for an updated GT look to the updated 911 body. I don't want more of the same.

Looks like they've improved the Aero to the naked eye. Wonder if 4.0L will be the standard engine size, or if not yet, when.

Word is the 4.0 is the last of its kind in terms of full dry sump, etc.

+1. And the tail lights look like a Z8. But otherwise, I like the car.

The door mounted side mirrors give the car the wider, more exotic look, which I think is great.

The door mounts are supposed to clean up the aero over the sides of the car and reduce wind noise.

Peter went gold, Larry plays the fashion card, James is now a super Aussie, the new car has 993ish mirrors, the 991 forum is open. It's all good.

I am trying to photo shop the grey/red into an RS Green/Black and I am having issues. Once I do get it, I will post it up.
