I agree somewhat. Stock Porsches I can tell the difference, but once they are modded with bodykits they really all do look the same. RUF, TechArt, Sportec, etc etc. I swear the similarities between all of there bodykits are insane.

Man, you can tell the differences if you look good enough.

The new GT2 will be a monster

Default SPY PHOTOS: More Porsche 911 GT2

The Sound Machine

The last generation GT2 was called “the widowmaker”, and the new one could be called “the noisemaker”.

Testing at Germany’s Nürburgring one can hear the GT2 almost half way around the track, but for the true car fan it is instead music to the ears – so it is better to be called “the sound machine”.

While the 4WD 997 Turbo delivers 480 bhp, the rear wheel drive GT2 will come up with at least 500 bhp.

Weighing some 100 to 150 kg less than the Turbo, the GT2 promises to become the ultimate driving machine.

It's optical illusion, it's actually smaller than the front - try overlapping the rear wheel on the front & you'll see . . .
