Black Editions: End of an era, or 997 refined??

You reading too much into my words.
As a general rule the porsche 911 is very special... but within the lineup, the base model isn't, as compared to the GT cars, for instance.
My point is that if porsche is intent on producing special editions, I think they should stick to the top end of the line... GT2RS, GT3RS LE, etc...
And for the record, I think porsches are very special.
Here's mine that I sold a few weeks ago... I miss it very much.

This seems to me that Porsche is stalling. They are trying to buy more time until they release the 998 or 991 (whatever it will be) version. Everybody is wainting for it for quite some time now and they keep bringing new editions to the front. And i think (really hope not) ,that the 998 it would not be such a great or vey much improved car like everyone is waiting. Regarding the engines though, i got my hands on an information, from a guy that works for Porsche in the engine development for 911 series, and it stated that the base 911 will have a 3.7l and the S will have 3.9L. What do you think?

It is only a good value if you are looking for a base black 911. That's it. History says Porsche has done this before though just not so much in recent years.( Martini racing 924, Bumble bee 914) The 964 had a bunch of variants too! Whatever im sick of it all too!
Porsche should have released a Club Sport. Based off the carrera not even the S with a GT3 suspension all the delete options(radio, A/C) sport buckets, Alcantara etc. I dont know about anyone else but the regular Carrera has MORE THAN ENOUGH power and a lightweight(around 3000lbs even) CS would be fantastic!!!! It could even look the damn same. I dont care what anyone says club sport stickers are cool as shit!
