Been sayin' this for a year....that canvas is too tight without spine lines.

Could be hardtop convert too.

Never say never. The competition is moving more and more towards hardtop convertibles. With lightweight materials, there is little difference in weight and performance.

I bet you within the next decade, if that long, we will see a Porsche hardtop 911.

This is going to kill the market for the 997TTS.

Hardtop wrapped in canvas. What you see is what you get.

My exact thoughts... Was supposed to drop my dealer tomorrow check out a new incoming TTS cab dark blue exterior and top with red interior, loaded with carbon bits...

Yup since we know it's a hardtop, and we've seen different colours of canvas, most likely it will have an aluminum hardtop wrapped in canvas. There is definietly room for one unde that huge tonaeu cover. I'm glad they're keeping the canvas look.

I think he might mean 523PS which is the same as the Turbo S. I guess that could be right? After all the chassis of the new 991 is so good I don't think too much more power would be needed.
