Like the stock 991, its not a bad looking car, don't get me wrong but it does not stir my soul. Not a fan of the wing-

All Gt3's have a wing. What's wrong with this one that makes it a deal breaker?

Well-I am not an overall fan of wings for a number of reasons-again, my opinion:
-Most of the time they will never serve a function unless you are in the smallest % of owners out there who track their car at speed.
-For the reason above, they look silly on a car that's puttering around town or in traffic. As silly to me as someone wearing a race helmet to run errands at the convenience store.
-They are rarely well integrated into the overall design of the car. This design in particular seems to be look more "stuck on" than the previous designs.

Understand. Many prefer the clean look of the 911 without any spoilers or add on body kit parts. The 991 does look sensational nude too. This car looks plain stupid with that wing on it.

PS disregard my previous post. I mistook this thread for the GT3 rendering thread....

Well, I had thought Franklin was giving a yawn to my comment on the GT3 rendering so you're not the only one who was/is confused....
