That also shows the strange sections on the roof. Wonder what that is all about.

Anyway, I like the whole thing so far.

3.4 L 345 hp Carrera? Hmmm. Interesting.

Still a lot of 'camo' on that car - around the lights and such, but I like the overall look.
Hard to be sure, but the car looks bigger than the 997, as it's been rumored to be.
The rear spoiler is very interesting; I like the way it comes up from the deck lid.

Interesting huh.
I'm guessing that would be a true 'overdrive' 7th gear for fuel economy purposes only.

If it's pop-up and slide out, that's like the Panamera. Makes sense since the interior looks like a Panamera, too. The 997 might go down as a classic...

All the early Porsche spy photos include strange wings and all kinds of camo, I don't buy that this thing looks anything at all like the final product.

Looks very similar to the 997 but its dimensions appear much larger which we already know to be true. Closer to a true GT car.

Still a nice looking car. Makes me wonder what Porsche has in mind for the next Boxster and Cayman.

Too early to say, but I'm not liking the looks at this point.
