    looks like an aftermarket version of my 996 TT. No thanks, I'll stick with the F430. For the better styling, exclusivity, better retention of value, and sound, the F430 was the right move for me.

    I agree, but its tough to get a 430, one of these you can probably get your hands on a lot easier... I am sticking with my 360 though.

    The specs are superb (as always with Porsche) and it will probably be a great road warrior; but sadly IMO the looks S**K! All those blobs and strakes sticking out everywhere, part lines going all over the place, yuck!

    P.S. This needs to be a poll!

    I would take the new GT3 over the Turbo but the Turbo looks gorgeous. And it will be fast as hell.

    I agree I love the new gt3 look. The turbo looks like a cayman in front.

    I like the looks of the 997TT and all you have to do to get rid of the bothersome F430 or Gallardo is to wiggle your toe on the gas pedal.

    Oh....my...god. Beautiful. I have to admit, the 997 has really brought back Porsche. The 996 was so freaking UGLY (excpet for the C4s, and the Turbo.)

    Bravo Porsche, Bravo.

    Just gorgeous in my opinion, Porsche once again has done a masterful job. Saying all that, anybody know of a good deal on a Challenge Stradle?

    Senna, I'm on the list for the 430 but lately things are looking, dark. If I don't get one then the Stradale will do, I really love the 997TT but the waiting list in some places stretches something like 2 years and I can't wait that long for either one.
    I just drove a '03 Stradale with something like 7,000 miles, Rosso Scuderia (I prefer rosso corsa) with the blueish/red two tone interior, it was offered to me for $186,000, its intoxicating.
