Yeah, the 991 is froggy looking. I see it. It's an ok looking 911, not ugly like a 996 but far from the looks or proportions of the beautiful 911's like the early cars, 993, and 964.

911’s have always had a frog shape. Nothing new there. Still looks awesome.

Does the 992 look less froggy to you? Is that why you don't like it?

Still froggy to me, but definitely getting less organic in design IMO. I simply don’t like what they’ve done with either end of the car at all, nor does the new interior look good to me. Personal preference. Looks more like an Audi or an Aston or an F Type to me.

It is an Audi now.. No doubt. It was bad enough that the 991 got VW/Audi buttons and logos (Key fob button logos, volume *****, frunk and engine lid switches)

The front end is as usual, the bland front end. You know Porsche is saving the sport design/GTS front for a "refresh" a couple years down the line. The rear is awkward. Side profile nice.

Frog factor: 5/10 due to the flared front.

Normally-aspirated frog or turbo frog?
