Here are some new photos of a 991 in one of the new Grey colours offered on the 991. The Carrera S wheels look great!

I don't like this pic at all. Makes the car look very bland, long and narrow.

Looks good, a little disappointed that the 7th gear is just a super tall overdrive though . . .

I personally think the 991 needs as much help as it can get to show it's rear curves because the front end has so much roundness. Maybe the WB version will help with that...

Which is why the brighter colors seem to look better to me. Yellow, Red, Ruby, Lime and even Cognac (this $hit brown looking tester we saw the video of). I haven't seen a single silver, black, grey or white one that I thought was terribly attractive, but the bright colors have been more to my liking.

That's all a 7th gear really needs to be in a 7sp manual... if it were a shorter more usable gear for accel or top speed, this car would start to become a shifting mess. 6th is top speed, 7th is for lower revs... works just fine IMO!

Also, I LOVE the profile of the car now, much more squat, much smaller overhangs!!
