^ Never seen text like that on the back.


It's a ton of models but I think they all add something new. Aside from the limited editions, there shouldn't be much of a problem. I can't imagine total 911 sales going up with the release of new models. Would imagine most were 997 cross-shoppers. So hurting resale is probably negligible (unless you get a 2RS and they release another high-end limited version). But for the standard variants or anything under $150K then I don't really mind. Lets you choose which engine, fenders, roof, etc that you want in any combination.

However, the Centurion and that watch version are just dumb. Nothing new offered there.

You can't really call this one a 'limited edition'. In my opinion, this one off looks so ugly. A black 997.2 GT3 is the most beautiful 911, but this ruins it. 3 tone wheels, red mesh, and a red dash wart? Not to mention the pumpkin side markers. Gross!

It's limited. It was designed by Porsche GmBh, not an independent tuner. Your opinion on its appearance is irrelevant to the topic.

Pretty sure this thread is missing around 850 different 997 variants.

Yup, it was in Azzuro California Metallic. 50 were built. I saw #50 0f 50... It was gorgeous! One of the best colors for the 997. But, that car came before the onslaught of all of these LE's so I don't think it counts.

So I had a dream last night that I bought a GT3RS Cab. Scary thing is that it could happen and somebody would buy it!
