There's potential... hopefully we can see it!

However, after looking at several new photos, I must retract my earlier statement about being a fake bumper cover. The detail and other views in the German Car Fans photos has changed my mind. Viva 'la difference.

... perhaps im in the minority, but except for the wheels and the damn fog lights, this looks pretty good.
The lines at the rear look better than the 996, in my opinion and it looks more muscular.
Perhaps the side vent inserts (is that what they are?) could be replaced without the break in the middle ?

Do you guys believe the German Car Fans site when they list the power at 460hp and 460trq. That would be dissapointing unless this new VTG makes this power come on over a huge rpm range. I still hope it has over 500. Anything less would be a shame.
