Or do what you did on that Turbo S cab, pick it up gently pre-owned.

Yes, it was the newest 996TT I could get without having to go into the 997 (which I dislike the look of).

Overall look. The 996TT looks aggressive to me, the 997 just looks like a frog with the round headlights. Maybe it will grow on me one day but right now I just can't "feel" it.

So have you felt that every porsche aside from the first gen boxsters and the 996's have all looked like frogs?

If you squint really hard, Stryke looks like a frog sometimes too. But I just keep my opinions to myself.

Yes sir, I never liked any 911 up until the 996. The older ones look like a beetle to me. I'm not knocking the cars, they just do not visually appeal to me.

ATL-P, what do you mean look like? I am a frog.
