Default Another new 928 design
Perhaps it was already spotted on the web, but here's a new 928 followup design. And arguably the most realistic of them all:
http://www.carscoops.com/2014/05/fut...ll-gazing.html

Is the 928 followup the most desored car that was never built?

Maybe it will come with a cracked dash so you know it's a 928.

It's a bad merger of the Vette & Viper. Ugly all around.

Agreed, but I wonder what some lower door scallops might add to yours...(or not).

The most realistic?

I hope not! It really doesn't look very good at all in my opinion.

Looks good, but I'm not a fan of the low profile tires on a GT car. I want comfort.

On second glane I noticed that there won't be enough space under the hoodto fit an engine. It is too low

I like it.... I think it looks like it could be the best Porsche look yet. 918 is pretty cool too, but im not a big fan of tiny midget cars.

the only change I think is needed is make the front fenders flush like the Aston Martin

That would be a good look... and some hybrid 918 technology added.

I agree also, but I wonder if anybody else has any idea how something very much like that can actually be executed, starting with an original 928, probably an S4 rather than a GTS, and not including door scallops and likely not including the oversize wheels and tires shown?
