Hopefully By 2006 Porsche will have redesigned the front to actually match the Corvette beating performance. The 986 is a tough act to follow and most car companies usually fail to top a company saving design success.

I'm sure this was a very controversial debate at Porsche to revert to what I feel is the outdated design of older 911's instead of continuing to develop the "New 911" look of the 996 and 986. When I saw the Boxster and 911 Turbo I thought Fantastic Porsches no longer look like glorified Volks Wagon.
I'm sure the aftermarket industry will have a go at beefing up the 997/987 look.

make it better not just different!
