997 Speedster, it's here

This at least is a special model. The GTS with the exception of the wider body is a Tequipment packaged exercise.

I'm trying, but all I can think is...ugly. Seriously, seriously ugly. The Pontiac Aztec of Porsches. Truly.
Aside from the fact that it's redundant. Really, why not put a 911 motor in the (far more attractive) Boxster S and call it a Speedster? It's not like there's a real advantage to it being a 911 if you've taken the rear seats out. I suppose Porsche is banking on 911 owner egos to chose this over a Boxster S. Suckers.

Oh, c'mon. Money no object, who here doesn't wanna park one of these in your garage for a few decades and sell it at an auction for a Brazillion dollars? I'd opt for the white one, tho.

Jalopnik is reporting a price of 201,682 Euros ($265,000) (http://jalopnik.com/5643726/porsche-...yline=true&s=i).
Gee, do I buy a GT3 and an original 356 Speedster, or do I buy this one? I could probably think of 200 cars I would rather have for that money.

Repent! Repent! The end is nigh!
1989: Lots of 911 models to pick from, including a Speedster - end of the 911 era.
1994: Lots of 964 models to pick from, including a Speedster - end of the 964 era (and upright headlights).
