Yeah I'd take a Vette over that any day. BTW, does the Vette sell well in Europe?? I know it will keep up with popular European sports cars for the same price so you'd think there was a market for it.

I guess the drive is the catch, because the silhouette is getting a little tired... Just a little.Originally posted by Rex Raider@May 11 2004, 11:06 PM
Porsches may be boring to look at, but they're hellafun to drive. Especially with 4wd. (911 C4S)

Whatever. You're not going to see a Taurus-shaped 911, so don't call us hypocrates because you're bitter about that.Originally posted by awalbert88@May 11 2004, 10:22 PM
Uhm. The 911 has always looked pretty much the same. It evolves, just like the Corvette. Sure, the difference between the C1 and C6 is pretty pronounced, but between generations the style hasn't changed a whole lot. Many of you who are complaining about this 911 being boring and "not new" are the same who praised the C6 for being exciting and new, when it looked like little more than a mildly updated C5.
But I guess I still expect too much of some of you when I point out the hypocrisy here.
awalbert88 should take notes from this guy!Originally posted by heat_fan1@May 11 2004, 10:55 PM
I'll say here what I said in another forum: you guys just don't understand. This car isn't retro, it's a 911. The 996 was far removed from the design of all previous 911s, and now they're going back to the front-end design that makes a 911 a 911: the round headlamps and separate turn-signals. It's an evolution, just like the Vette, although even more subtle. If you ask me, this car is awesome. It also separates it more from the Boxster, which will also be redesigned in the next year or two. The 997 also gets a nice new engine in the Carrera S (3.8-liter for 355 hp).
