Great brand new Turbo pics

Found these pics of the new Turbo with no disguising like the usual sneak peak pics .This looks to be the finished product i kinda like it ,the lack of any front lip seems to look a little boxerish but like all new models they tend to grow on you once they hit the streets,but i'm in know hurrry to trade in the 977tt

It's clean, but not clean enough to justify me spending 70k and trading in my car plus another 13k in taxes. Rather just put 30k into mine.

The front doesn't look special and the rear is ugly... The wing looks like an iron board

I don't think it looks any better than the 997...then again, that may be a good thing. The 997 does look any better than the 930 IMO. A little bit of modernization and keeping classic lines

PDK only no thanks. The front looks like a carerra I bet we will see a different design with a more pronounced lip.
Is that a siren under the license plate?????

Looks good...as it should. Im not too sure about the front signal/driving lights and the red slit lights/reflectors on rear bumper tho. The front signal lights are HUGE.

The tell from the front for any of the recent Turbos was the separation of the DRL (apart from the monster vents on the hips) from the rest of the front clip. The front looks more like a non turbo now with their change. Don't like it.

I still like the 997 Something more classic about it. Not sure what but its the same reason I love the E46 M3 over the E92 M3 body as well.

Thumbs up

Great Find! Thanks for posting!

I dont think it looks better than the 997 , and I honestly think the 991 GT3 looks much nicer than the 991TT. The rear wing on the Turbo does indeed look like an ironing board

Note: Maybe im just not happy with the fact that we will be outdated soon.
