so this one is the 991? which follows the 997, which followed the 996, which followed the 993, which followed the 964?
is there ANY logic in their chassisnaming?

This actually is a rather cool relict of the golden days in Le Mans when the drivers had to run to their racecars, jump in, start the engine and fasten their seatbelts at the start of the race. In order to be able to belt on and start the engine at the same time the engineers positined the ignition key hole on the left side, so the drivers could start the engine with their left hand and strap themselves with their right hand.(...) Much like their stubborness (...) putting the ignition key hole on the wrong side.

Evo did a comparison against 997 GT3. 991 might be the most comfortable and easiest to use 911 ever, but even in the most daily drivable Carrera S spec it turned out to be pretty good driver's car against the GT3. They said the GT3 is still the more exciting car, but the 991 Carrera S is still excellent driving tool. So how insanely great will the 991 GT3 (RS) be?
Some small, blurry spy-shots of the 991 GT3 here...The more I see the 991, the more I dig the look of it. Can't WAIT to see the GT3!
