At 48, the Porsche 911 Carrera is youthful than ever. The completely re-designed seventh-generation sports car symbol is getting into the emphasize with its luxurious and expanded outline, interesting contous and accurately designed features. Yet from every position it is unmistakably a 911, positioning true to the Porsche 911 Carrera 'evolution, not revolution' style viewpoint. The 100 mm or 3.9 in. longer wheelbase and decreased overall level underpin the refreshing, running yet exquisite overall look. When considered from the top side, the eye is driven to the 911's signature wide- curved bumpers, concentrating on the broader front side monitor. The side showcases are now attached on the higher side of the entrance, which also helps emphasize the new style line and gives the vision impact of wider.

The Type 997 Porsche 911 remains the best selling of all time. This does not prevent his critics to claim that architecture "entirely l'arrière" of the past. More sober, faster, safer and more effective, the Type 991 will show them that this line of Porsche is not an anomaly in the long history of evolution of the automobile.
1989, 1994, 1998, 2004 and now 2012 ... Every time it's the same thing. When a new generation of 911 made its appearance, his worshipers will twist your hands in expectation of whether the newest will honor its glorious predecessors. Or if the juggernaut of regulatory constraints that eliminates differences and stifles strong personalities will have finally won the Porsche myth.
The suspense is unbearable. While waiting to read the minutes of the first tests, we see scenes of mass hysteria. Here it is reported that the distraught wives keep their husbands had threatened to defenestrate. There, it is said that a customer was able to defeat his helpless aversion to the language of Goethe and write a petition to the parent shortens their suffering. The horror. Only the spectacle offered by Anthony Hamilton - father and manager of Lewis, the champion of F1 - landing in the middle of a schoolyard fence battered after driving his Carrera GT to pain as a Porschiste.
At a time when I speak, these tragic times are fortunately over. A few weeks ago already, the findings of the famous Auto Motor und Sport and Auto Sport in Germany, Car and Driver and Motor Trend in the United States, or even Sports and Auto Exhaust in France came appease these lost souls. Their verdict is clear: the Porsche 911 Type 991 has earned the home of Autobahnen. Performance, agility, its sound and its line make a worthy successor to the Type 997.
