    I'm loving this car. I really am. I love the color combo, thought I'd leave the checkers & fender script at the dealership - replace it with the classic "RS" script on the door sill & I'd be happy.

    Unfortunately, every time I see a front end view of it, the only thing I can think of is "lipstick on a Porker".

    Yeah, yeah, very impressive. But get this: I heard the new electric Trabant hit a red squirrel on its way there : (

    No word on how fast it was going, but probably not 180.

    160kg of downforce? Does that mean you can stand two people on the spoiler?

    You should caution that the soundtrack/audio is definitely NSFW! Visually, the red tips and trim look clownish but the sound is sweet sweet sweet!

    You know what? I'm tired of the 911. It's nice that they can keep selling these things, and that they're really, really well-built - vault-like, almost.

    But ultimately, this is a well-polished design that's now, what, 50 years old? More?

    How about some real innovation, for a change? Or some fundamental change - and I'm not talking about cooling. Introduce a tub-based design with lots of carbon fiber. Put a real engine in the Cayman. Whatever - just DO something.

    This "best 911 ever" crap is getting old.

    @cgates1: Sure, the exterior has really had only evolved slightly from year to year, but everything underneath has changed dramatically, which is why these Porsches will keep laptimes on par with those of cars costing two or three times as much - look at the Lamborghini, Pagani, Koenigsegg, Ferrari... all of them are super sexy, but only offer diminishing returns over a Porsche when it comes to racing. There are only a couple other cars I would even consider in the same price range; the Z06 and the GT-R. And for a car that can do a track day on the weekend and be a daily driver, the Porsche is unique. Okay, maybe I wouldn't drive the GT3 to work every day, but I could drive a Carrera S every day until I died.

    You may call the design dated, but at this point I consider it staid and understated.

    Side note: you want to put a rear engine in a Cayman? I'm not sure you really understand Porsche's lineup...

    @weatherman: No - a REAL engine! The 911 powerplant, not a de-rated one. I almost bought one last year. I understand Porsche's line-up pretty well - in fact, I even own one.

    I like the look of the 911.

    I'd just like to see something entirely new. Those guys built the 917, the 956, the RS Spyder (a middling effort in comparison), really promulgated turbocharging etc. - but now I feel like they're resting on past glories.

    Bring me freshness and innovation, and let's build the car we want: a Cayman, with a big engine, a race suspension and some big venturi tunnels and a diffuser.

    @cgates1: Oh :) I gotcha. I thought you said rear engine.

    As much of a fan of the 911 as I am, I agree; if they popped a nice turbo with 400+ horses in a Cayman, and made a few stylistic changes, I'd be right there with you.

    With a flash of red, a growl of the exhaust, and a gleam of LED running lights, the 911 GT3 RS races into the hearts of both boys and grown men.

    It then turns left and heads south racing into the groinal area of said men, reminding them that there is no pr0n greater than car pr0n.

    This just In, ladies and gentlemen...

    In response to the video introducing the 911 GT3 RS, Nissan has announced that they will shortly be releasing a video of the GT-R SpecM that will be even "pornier". It will feature a GT-R being "driven hard in multiple different positions". Dragons everywhere are surely rejoicing.

    Due to video content laws in Japan, however, the video cannot be filmed live-action, so they are being forced to make it animated, and as such they have run into problems. It seems that, in staying true to the "anime" style, Nissan wanted to make the eyes bigger, and the mouth more exaggerated, however with the GT-R, this is proving impossible. We'll keep you updated as more details emerge.

    For a DOT-approved street car that is built for the track I like the big, loud colors. I saw a current gen GT3 RS a couple of weeks ago in neon green with black graphics and it was eye catching. Me likey.

    This isn't going to be your primary car (or *is it*? ), so it seems silly to worry about fitting in nicely with your color scheme.

    That's what your charcoal gray BMW X5 is for...
