Much better, but that ain't sayin' much

I think I started to fall asleep looking at that pic.
I had some insomnia tonight, but wow Porsche cured it. Off to bed.

Good night everyone!

Dont kill the messenger

I have nothing to do with the styling!

artrix · 06-06-2008, 03:26 AM

And the difference is?
If i saw the coupe from further i couldn't tell if it's the 2009 or 1964 model. Except for the bumpers and the taillights.

It truly IS like Jermey Clarkson says.......

Being a designer for Prosche HAS to be the easiest job in the world.

This is how they make so much money!

Frankster177 · 06-06-2008, 05:14 AM

Ah the classics never die. Still a lovely car.
Porsche know when they are onto a good thing.
Maybe why they are doing well.

WishIhadatruck · 06-06-2008, 05:24 AM

Yup, looks like a 911.

member12 · 06-06-2008, 05:51 AM

Sure, it's the same as the old model....but why change a good thing. The 911 and Cayman are my favorite German cars.

likearock00 · 06-06-2008, 06:25 AM

For all ya'll saying that you're falling asleep- try driving one!!

Hasn't changed, and that's a good thing. I would still love to have one!

I'd love to drive one! I'm accepting donations.

Wow the new 1999 Porsche looks awesome. Wait, that is the 2009 model? Really?

04bonnie · 06-06-2008, 07:30 AM

Looks the same to me. However, 911's have always looked similar to their models before them. Nice evolution of a design...kind of like the Corvette. Why can't the other brands, and models do this?

Brglotus · 06-06-2008, 08:19 AM

I would hate to work on the 911 design team. "How can we change the headlights and tail lights for this model year?" Having said that though, I am a 911 fan and loved the late 90's (pre Boxster) headlights.

Ambalanche · 06-06-2008, 08:41 AM

Yawn! Still looks like a beetle to me. The Cayman is the only Porsche I have ever liked including the Boxter.
