Hope this is not a repost.
Which is your favourite 911?
Mine is probably the Porsche 997 GT3.

It has the enough power to beat quite a number of cars which has more power on the track like the Veyron for example.
Where is yours?

1998-2001 996. The one with the kidney-shaped headlights. The earliest version without Turbo-headlights.
http://img207.imageshack.us/img207/1158/199820porsche2091120caryf8.jpg
The old ones are dangerous and slightly ugly. The turbo-headlighted 996 was too aggressive, and the new 997 looks like a frog. The 993 is my second favourite.

when the new GT2 comes out it'll be my favourite.
Rear wheel drive, like a propper porsche should be
rear engine, like a propper porsche shoud be
turbocharged, because that's porsches answer to everything (ie "the cayenne is ugly" + Porsche = Cayenne turbo S)
And because no rich (parents) dumb blonde will buy one. they buy C4s
Porscheboy
Dec 25, 2006, 11:10 PM
In order I'd take a
-GT1 Strasseversion
-959
-black on black 930 Turbo with the whaletail and Fuchs black w/silver lip rims
-997 GT2 (looks fan-fkkn-tastic from the pictures and vids I've seen.)
-993 Turbo S
-997 GT3 RS Black with orange accents

Dec 26, 2006, 12:17 AM
I would have to say any 964 with the big whale tail spoiler or the new 997 GT3.
when the new GT2 comes out it'll be my favourite.
Rear wheel drive, like a propper porsche should be

Why does a proper Porsche have to be rear engined. The first Porsche was mid engined. The way I see it the Boxster is the most "proper" Porsche on the market.

i can see what you all mean about 996 being nicer than 997 but i think that they may well have reached a point with the 911 i cant really describe that point but its just doesnt seem like it can get much better with out making it something its not.
and im quite sure porsche is aware that the 911 will have to stop somewhere
