They always seems to make these small changes that improve the look each year.

Only thing it is missing is manual transmission....

But the car is looking very sweet!

not sure what you mean? per the article:

"In addition, the engineers have prepared a new evolution of boxer engines, the world's first seven-speed manual transmission, and a chassis with a bigger footprint that creates a more confident stance for Porsche's icon."

As with the panamera, cayman, cayenne-- the front looks great, but the rear just doesn't look right to me.

conrail · 14 October 2011, 12:17 AM

That's an awesome color too!

The 911 has always been by favorite car but I didn't know that you can no longer get it with a conventional 'stick'.

I'm guessing that they now have paddle shifters and no clutch.

mboverst · 14 October 2011, 12:30 AM

I guess I'd 'take it'...

Seriously though, I think I need this thing! I had almost convinced myself to trade-in my car for a Panamera, but this has me second guessing that thought!

no, both a traditional 7-speed manual transmission and the PDK are available.

I "wouldn't say no" but the nose is too pointy and thin to my eye...

blackmsport · 14 October 2011, 07:56 AM

Love to own one with a 6 speed manual

dysondiver · 14 October 2011, 08:02 AM

Speaking of price, what is the price for the '12 911? I'm probably going to buy a car before the year's end and Porsche is on my list. Also on that list is the BMW M3.

Have you guys seen the new BMW M5?

masterserg · 14 October 2011, 11:32 AM

Amazing!

z32turbo · 14 October 2011, 11:40 AM

Gotta go with racing yellow.

Brunotheboxer · 14 October 2011, 11:43 AM

Like it but there are other cars I'd buy before this.
