Interesting noise on ignition also.

Supposedly ....

Induction and engine sounds are transmitted to the passenger compartment via a speaker diaphragm.

But does not sound as good as http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedd... from europipe or similar DMS one - on the 997.2. OEM here we come

[rimkah]

Have assured I wont be dissapointed, cant be worse than the 997

[DT398]

Definitely want one of those!

Are the daylight running lights in a different place, around he outside of the headlights?

[Carl_Docklands]

Although she is almost 2 metres wide at the rear, apart from the AMG exhaust tips I think it looks alot better on the move than it did in the still photos.

The LED headlights have a halo around the unit

Here is a new video which shows the new turbo in green gold, she is a bit wide at the back:

Gorgeous and want one...

It made me think that there is a subconscious RUF element to the design....

Wider than 4 body for once.

[Magic919]

Wider than 4S.

I thought it used the C4S 'widebody' shell?

It is but apparently, turbo will be even wider for once.

I so much want to love this car, but I'm sorry, that's hideous!

[mollytherocker]

Is it me or does it look quite tall, sort of Paris Dakar spec?

Some good news on the exhaust note:

Fast forward to 2 minutes and 16 seconds.

The new GT3 does look very nice! much better than the previous ones and the 991 Turbo

[Callughan]

Love the rear of 991 turbo.

Not so sure about side vents maybe better with fins.

All in all looks the business.
