Not a particularly good looking car, and it looks appalling in white.

IMHO of course

They ARE new pics! I think it looks really nice. Front looks fantastic and I like the styling of the rear. Central exit exhaust means car will not be quite so easily confused with the aerokitted 997s from the back!!!
The interior looks a bit 'luxury-spec' to me though. I suspect that this really will be a more "mainstream" proposition than the 996 GT3.
Speed Yellow anyone?
Roll on the RS!

Absolutely fantastic. Interior is trying to do two jobs at once, hopefully full leather and fully stripped with both be optional.

Even the steering wheel?

Really cannot bring myself to like that wheel, though I agree the rest looks

I agree that the steering wheel isn't brilliant, I have always thought that about this new wheel, but it no longer offends me. The creature comforts don't worry me either as the RS version should ditch most of those, so there is a 997 GT3 for everyone. If you have the funds.

Well, maybe I'm a sucker, but I LOVE it, especially in white. Please could everyone who is considering one buy one (although I agree the £10K up front is just not cricket) then there will be a (relative) glut in a few years time and even I can have one!
