It looks like a 2016 with a slightly more pronounced rear haunch and restyled rear air dams. The turbo I think costs too much if u ask me? I'd rather get the 911 gts or gt3.

With the nice bump in tq numbers for the base Carrera, I was interested until I noticed the bump in the base price of $4-5k. Kind of hard justifying $90k+ to drive around a small island.

The 911 is iconic its not an island by anyone's measure!!

Oops haha, I should have made my post clearer. To drive around the whole island of Oahu is maybe 120 miles and there are just a few roads where you can even redline the Z in 3rd gear. So in my mind, to buy a $90k+ Porsche to drive on an island this tiny, just doesn't make sense.

Beautiful, love the rear quarter panel of the new 911 turbo. But for purist I would love to have the the caymen gt4 instead with a manual only...don't care about how much faster the 911 is.
