What do you guys think? Personally, I like it - I always thought that 911 styling reached a pinnacle with the 993 (the last air-cooled 911s from '93-'98 ). I always found the current 996 to be a little blah - it looks like a rear-engined bar of soap.

I think the move back to more prominent round headlights and separate turn signals has done the front end appearance a world of good, and the more noticable "hips" over the rear wheels are a welcome return to the traditional shape of the 911.

Overall, it gets a big from me.

Ya, it's OK if you like 205 MPH, 380 HP stock machines.
