New Porsche 911 Pics Leak out ahead of Official Debut http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6185/...4615f1a2_b.jpg The New Porsche 911 Leaks out ahead of Official Reveal Unofficially Official: Here is your new 911 folks! Here we go! The wait is over and thanks to leaks on the web we can present to you the new Porsche 911. As we have previously reported the new 911 is a tad longer than the current model, and buyers will have their choice of to new six-cylinder engines. The base model Carrera will be powered by a 3.4-liter flat-six, which will be good for 350 horsepower. The Carrera S will be powered by a 3.8-liter flat-six, upping the ante to 400 hp. No matter which engine chosen they will be mated to an all new 7 speed manual or optional PDK dual-clutch transmission. http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6067/...4f629dba_b.jpg One thing that will surely grab your attention is the all new Panamera influenced interior. Spy photos sure had us worried but it looks like Porsche has done a very good job incorporating the modern design into the iconic 911. The front 3/4 shots look very aggressive! The new 911 will be publicly shown at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor show in September and we expect an official release from Porsche on or before the 24th of this month. Stay tuned! http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6182/...7a5e9ddd_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6198/...0e19113e_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6183/...64b37eb0_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6085/...00870135_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6185/...fd7db322_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6188/...5ce96659_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6067/...a1981ae7_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6202/...74295bf7_b.jpg |
its a WINNER!!! :D Only thing that bothers me albeit VERY small is that it says 911 before the Carrera S...we KNOW its a 911... |
interior is spot on... not sure i like the front fogs... i am sure it will grow on me! |
I like it especially the interior |
I love it. Can't wait for the GT2/GT3 |
Upon further confirmation this is the REAL DEAL. |
^^edit: NVM: I like it. |
Wow! Car looks great! Really looking forward to seeing the turbo/gt3 cars. |
I love it. That interior is a big step forward. |
I dislike the fog lights... everything else looks good |
I'm trying to find something I don't like about the 991, and it just isn't possible. Everything is perfect down to the last detail. I didn't think it was possible for the 997 to look dated, but I'm not so sure now. |
Big. Red. X's. |
Sorry but totally dislike the front!! Maybe the Gt3's will look better? |
Is it time for the Official "991" forum added to TS? |

I love it ... my next car for sure |
Something about the rear isn't right. But looks good enough to turn heads. |
I'll wait to see it in person. But I'm REALLY hating Porsche's BS computer enhancements they do for their pictures. So far, I'm not 'wow'd' like I was hoping to be. |
One thing for sure is to many dang letters on the rear bumper, can you say model designation delete? ;) |

The interior looks like a great place to spend a commute. Those headlights are enormous though! |
I've seen a few people say they don't like the "fog lights"... what fog lights? All I see are headlights and DRL's. Anyway, I like it! I wasn't sure if I was going to like the rear end but I think I do. I wonder what it will look like with big spoilers on it (such as the GT models). |
Well it's not a winner for me, must see it in the flesh to have a definite opinion! |
All I can say is WOW...I didn't think it was possible for Porsche to modernize the 911 any further than the 997 but they did it. A couple of nitpicks from me though. I feel that they've managed to make the interior more like a luxury car and less like a sports car. That's just my opinion though. I think that the 997.2 has possibly the perfect blend between sports vs luxury but the 991, not so much. Feels like they're separating the driver from the passenger too much. I know it's probably best to make things more driver orientated but not in this way I don't think. The rear end, I'm trying to like it but I think they made the tailights too small and there's just too much going on in the rear designation. I like the way they have PORSCHE in the rear glass on the 997 and just the model designation. I guess that's the first thing I'll change if I get one. :) |
Not bad....can't believe they still leave the hideous chrono on top, and the rear center console is blech. Beyond that, glad to see Guards/Beige come back for promo material. We'll see in a while what this thing really looks like. |
The ass end and side profile looks epic. I'm still making my mind up on the front but overall i'm very impressed! |
looks nice, kinda like the debut of the db9! i like this better though. |

It's definitely a huge evolution from the 997. I think I like it but I'm not 100% sure. Waaaaaaaay too much badging on the rear. |

And I don't think many of us are that "wowed" because of how slowly the car was revealed. First we saw all the spyshots, then the interior shots, then the spyshots without hardly any camo, and now these, so really the only new thing that we're seeing is the badgindg. |
I would take the 911 carrera S off and just leave the Porsche badging. These are just the initial shots so I wouldn't take TOO much from these, as we will see high res, diff. specs, and angles, etc. But overall I think the car is a winner, and now the long wait to see the big boy Gt3/Gt2 begins! |
i like the side profile a lot! the new headlight looks like a step backward from the 997 optional dynamic cornering light. hopefully there will be an optional new headlight. |
i like it a lot. i want one. |

I like it! But like other members already said: drop the "911 Carrera" and just leave the "PORSCHE" letters, I would do it like that. And I also hate the images, they should just take a camera and take pictures instead of all the 3D computer programs. |
I really like what they've done with the 991. Other than the badging everything else looks great. |

I noticed this on some of the spy shots too. Why does the red car have a center radiator and the silver one does not? Both are Carrera S models... http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6198/...0e19113e_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6183/...64b37eb0_b.jpg |
radiator is for the PDK the Silver one must be a manual: http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6198/...a67cb888_o.jpg |
