I have a 16 year old 993 that makes smile when I open the garage door . A 16 year old Vet will not do that its just an old Vet. A well cared for 911 is timeless. IMHO

Wait, Eddie, are you getting the GT2 or the Z06?

Eddie is at heart a BOOST junkie.

Looks like train horns pointed out the back a la trumpet appearance.

I realize that beauty is in the eye of the beholder but in my humble opinion and as a former Corvette owner (7 of them, the last one was a new 2001 Z06) that rear end is beyond hideous.

If I was ordering one, it would be black, as that color would mask at least some of the unfortunate Godzilla overstyling.

that rear is the worst part of the car. I wonder if the designer of the vette was separated at birth w/ the designer of the Panny?!

It hurts my eyes. Kinda looks like a bad copy of the Camaro and funny thing is, they just cleaned up the Camaro with a nice rear end for 2014!

All you can do is get a dark color and or paint the rear.
I bet aftermarket companies will make a CF piece to glue on with maybe twin trapezoid outlets...

The car looks quite good in person. The lights and the exhaust pipes work well together. The hood cut out is strange. The roof is probably the least well executed part. I'm sure it will look great in black.
