Cool because it's probably the most technological Turbo ever made. Arse kicking 480bhp and 502lb-ft of torque and as a result mind blowing fast. The front bumper bothers me a little bit; i'm not sure i would have installed the signal lamps in the front grill. Anyways

At least the four foot wing on the back of the new GT3 version makes it stand out a little from the standard car.

for sure COOL, because it's a 911, probabely the best made sportscar (reliable,...)
for the shape I haven't made my mind yet, I have to see the car in Geneva ...
but it won't be subzero, the CGT is SZ

Don't kill me but I voted for seriously uncool!!!

I know it deserves a better vote but I'm just too hungry with the look of this car. I think it looks horrible: the wheels, the rear bumper, the rear spoiler. Just the front bumper isn't that bad. And when I see the stunning GT3 and than I look at this..... man... ugly!!!

I never loved the 911's Turbo ( because for the almost the same money you can buy a Ferrari V8 wich has way more passion ) but the 993 is the best looking one 8)

SZ - having 'overboost' makes it sound like some sort of jet fighter
