Front end needs to be done better. Those big horizontal rectangular clear lights (whatever they're called) were already tacky when Porsche relocated them onto the front bumper. But now it's just a mess with all that stuff going on in the front spoiler as well. The shortened hood makes it look like Herbie or some Pokemon. Tacky is the word.

It's as if a Japanese tuner company got their hands on it.

I think it's a case of function over form.

I haven't seen the price, however, the 996 GT3 started at 99k.

Wow, your car looks clean. Now THAT'S the way a Porsche should look. If they made the Cayman equivalent of the GT3, I'm sure it would look nicer.

Ok, I gotta ask. Why would you buy an rx8 with this sitting in your garage?
Everything I love about the 8, the porsche does better. Why?

That GT3 has near the same power as your TT, doesn't it?

I've never been a fan of Porsche. I think the centered dual exhaust looks like a butthole.

Hi guys. The Rx8 was awesome !!!! This is what happened, LOL. I had a 2004 Rx8 but my wife knew that I always wanted a TT. The only way that I was able to convinced her was to trade the 8 for a new Ford Expedtion(For Her), LOL. Then, suddenly I was without a car and BOOM!!! told her, well baby, now you have a new car and I have to find one for me,- Lucky enough to get the 05 996tt,haha.

Yes, Gt and Evo magazine have the GT3 and the 996TT making about the same power(415-420), very close. The GT3 is a better track car. The 996tt is a better overall car.
Now , the 997TT- 2007 coming out this summer, will make close to 480hp with a lot of improvements over the 996tt. 0 to 60 in about 3.5 secs Vs. 4.1 secs(Stock 996tt)!!!
The waiting list is so big that some people are getting theirs in march/April 2007.
My chance was now or never, LOL, So I took it.

Yes, not a lot of people are Porsche fans, but the TT takes you through a warp experience

I was thinking the EXACT same thing, knowing Ike that could have been done by design.
