Default WB vs. NB photos

I figured that since the other comparison pictures are ~10 years old, It was time for another set of comparison pics!

And one for fun

Hard to really see the difference when the pic is taken of both at the same time...

Sorry, I used a word that changed during traslation: I wrote the disgrace of the wb rear here is evident, while I wanted to say that the wb rear here it is evident (at least to me) to be less graceful than then NB rear. (In italian language I'd say "meno aggraziato")

If Porsche would have redesigned the RSR ENLARGEMENT to melt armoniously with the nb design, probably that could have been sort of almost equivalent balanced option.
On the turbo the rear looks smaller because of the huge wing

Two more of the two. The WB is arctic silver. Ignore the NB wheels on it. Those were on temporarily while waiting for the correct TT wheels to arrive in the mail. The NB is polar silver which has since been sold, sold again, and again... since June.

I've ALWAYS preferred the girls with the little narrow hips...

Except for when it comes to 993's - congrats to all with your WB's!

Can we get a WB next to a more modern 911 like a 991?
