Wow, so Porsche has "boldly" restyled the Turbo's bumpers and tailights. So that's probably $15K right there.
Porsche has cynically gouged its lapdog apologist buyers into paying EXTRA for floormats, decent interior trim and logo wheel caps.
From an aesthetic perspective, the 911 is a dinosaur and the Audi R8 is the meteor.
E.L.E. Extinction Level Event.
If Audi launches a $60something R6, bye bye Porsche!

911 is in a class of its own.You can't compare it to anything.

Is it not the new Porsche (997) 911 Turbo S? Less weight and more power, 500hp?. The last generation of the (996) 911 Turbo with 420hp had also a special version, the Turbo S with more 30hp = 450hp.

The "Non-11" is too pricey and too old to excite enthusiasts.
At best, it's mere man-jewelry. I'm not knocking the power and performance. I am knocking the packaging and pricing.
Do Porsche designers just Xerox old 911 designs over and over? And how can they justify CHARGING for logo wheel caps, leather and floormats (and around 60-70 other options)?
