That front bumper so blows. I did see the new 911 and I like however. I want to note that porsche has been coming out with some pretty crappy stuff lately.
example the cayene or however you spell that flying anchor. thing is named after a food dish. Ohh yes the front looks like they wanted to mold it to some twisted carrera and than they just gave up on the rest!

The GT carrera however is hot. i will get to ride in one soon

I still believe thats a concept

reminds me of that top gear episode
Porsches are over priced ..... only one I would ever get would be the current 911 turbo and to think a car half its price the z06 owns it.

It owns it performance wise but the porsche is also more of a luxury car hence the ridiculous price

Zo6=Best bang for your buck in the world

Thats like saying an Ferrari 360 modena is wack cause the vette can hang with it or do better than it on the track, for almost 1/4 of the price

Please, give me a break. 911 Turbo is a sick car. Period.

Thank you.

911 Turbo owns.

So does the Zo6, don't get me wrong. But c'mon who actually wants a Zo6 more than a 911 turbo, not me.

My extream dislike of porsche has nothing to do with the price, the performance or the looks. It deals purly with the amount of skin and blood i've lost from working on the Pos's. so Like I said the only thing I want to do with porsche is push it off a cliff, and I know of many body techs that would love to be there to see it.

Sorry, but you've got your facts wrong there. Top speed aside, the Enzo Ferrari, to date, is the fastest production vehicle. It beat the McLaren F1 in all acceleration tests (except for top speed, which is one of the F1's strong points). The Enzo is faster than the Carrera GT, even if it isn't by much.

By the way, yeah, that new Porsche is hideous looking

i dont think thats the new 911 turbo, im pretty sure its the boxter coupe that they will release soon. it was in one of the previous car and driver or motor trend issues. they said either the 's' version or something higher than that will have the 3.4 carrera engine. i dunno why they arent using the 3.6 from the 2002+ carreras but anyway im sure thats the boxter coupe. it also looks too small the be a 911 anyways.

the wing reminds me of the hideous bridge-thing someone had on their honda, that a 7thgener had posted on this site not too long ago...other than that horrible wing, i think it looks good. obviously, performance-wise this car rocks...

wait, i thought that the front bumper and the spoiler only look like that because they are still hiding the finished product and those are only bras that cover up the car from spy shots.

possible.. its still in production, and i dought thats a boxer, and the ferrari enzo is barely faster drag wise, but auto-x wise the carrera gt would own, ive read that in several places, and (id hope the enzo would be faster in a drag cuz after all.. it has a bigger engine)

by concept I meant that hideous beast there.
Im sorry its ugly and for the same price you probally can get a Ferrari 360!

I know someone that owns a carrera GT! My dads boss just recently made the list to get one and he is a very damn good driver.
Tiff from Top Gear posted 4 sec better lap times when he took an enzo out than when he took out the GT, 4 secounds its like a week!

I will be showing footage of a GT as soon we head up to leguna secca this year again if he recieves delivery. Its pretty cool he invites us. Ohh yes he also owns a Race ferrari.

Dont get me wrong I just hate porsche always did and always will.
