ddb - ya I was just looking at the New Cab, it is on the Porsche site. The big ugly hump in the back is smaller, much nicer looking.

The cars are larger in dimension but isn't the weight

about the same (maybe less?) than the outgoing 997 series?

I get the feeling you've been spending a bit too much time with Johnny Danger.

I do like that they finally found a way to keep the shape of the solid car's roofline essentially intact on the new cabriolets. It blends much better. The funny thing is I've yet to see a picture of the new one with the top down.

Yes the new rag top looks great, the lines are wonderful. Checkout porscheusa.com, galleries with and without the top up.
