So this 991.2 pic was posted by CJ Wilson and it immediately stood out that the front bumper looks out of proportion compared to the .1. I realize this is a cup but dimensionally should be close to the street version.

What do you think?

Looks like flared fenders for wider front wheels.

I think he's speaking about the snout being farther out from "smile" vent maybe? The production 991.2 GT3 has exact same front bumper (without tow hook and fender extensions). I wouldn't call it "abnormally larger" myself but it might have that visual effect to some eyes based on extensions.

^Ah yes, I'm dazed... time for some don julio..

Could very well just be camera angle, making a slightly longer nose look way longer. I do like the new design of the nose though.

The cup car is pointier than the previous one- the biggest difference for me is the vertical members of the front bumper. They look like they are leaning a bit.

C.J, you've seen the 991.2 GT3 in the flesh. Did it appear to be the same size as the 991.1 GT3?

Gonna go with a combo of depth of field and lens distortion.

I said it's some special racing front, too long for street car.

Guys my white car IS A CUP CAR yes it is a race car.

The new GT3 will look like this! Pointier front bumper

These two pictures have very different fov angles. It is a waste of time to compare them.

Unless it is a joke and I missed it.

FLT6SPD

Yeah, you missed it. Move along...

Here's another look -- I like it!

From an aesthetic point of view, there is very little surprising which we'll see of final version of this car. It's exactly the same as the Cup car minus the fender flares. The technical aspects hopefully hold some mild nuggets of surprise.

Camera is closer with a wide angle lens which makes the edges seem bigger. It accentuates the slight forward lean on the grille, which I hadn't noticed before but is pretty cool.
