Default Just up looking at some pictures of sharks

And I'm wondering "What about this body design makes the car look agressive and fast when its just sitting there" And I've concluded that besides its obvious horizontal flowing lines, pointed nose and rear spoiler. Its the way the rear quarterpanel covers the top of the tire. It looks like a car at the dragstrip with a serious launch squat at the line, with the bonus of it being perfectly horizontal to the ground. It looks like the car is in a perpetual state of hard acceleration hahaha. Pain killers are great huh? haha

Hey, there's a lot to appreciate about 928s, but without a doubt the best part is driving one. The more you drive it, the more you love and respect it. I am only recently back into the 928 thing (9 months) so I still notice everything. The fact it looks good is a bonus.

Hey, I once carried 140lb for a record 4 years. Then I broke up with her.
Now I am carrying 3500lbs, but it aint heavy, it's my 928.

I have always thought the GTs models look as if they were being propelled forward as they are just sitting there. True fluid motion from design!!

Reminds me of drawing a mustache on the Mona Lisa.
