Old news. It is jest a mild re-style/refresh, i.e. a 997.3. The all new chassis is still a couple of years out.

Those pictures are artist renditions and they have been posted here before. No one knows exactly what the car will look like.

Actually the article suggests otherwise. Roughly translated the middle section reads: "This is the completely new developed 991 model. Contrary to the 997, which was just a freshly clad and technically upgraded 996, the 991 does barely reuse a single screw from its predecessor, except from some components. Front suspension, rear suspension, steering, electric emergency brake, 20 inch wheel option, roomier light weight cabin, seven gear manual gearbox, more powerful engines -- everything is new."

P.S. How do you fit in a 911 anyway? Must have a convertible...

I'm sure those 991 owners will appreciate those comments - about as much as 996 owners comparing our 996's to the similarities of the 997.... (997 = 996.3)

Check "user" name of post # 3 and compare it "member" name in post #4. Different person. "ADiaz" was just created to stir up some chit. Pay no attention.
