First time I remember seeing sharp creases blended with the curves on Porsche. Makes the car look more mature and inline with what we are seeing from other German Manufacturers.

Is it just me (or the effect of a zoom lens) or is the rear window trapezoidal, widening as it gets closer to the roof? I have looked at all of the recent spy shots and it appears that way to me.
Other then the front lights we know how the car looks. The big changes are underneath, and the interior, according to the info Porsche has leaked.

I think the 'upturned' looking new front bumper looks a little funky, maybe better for driveways though.

Interesting - I wonder how this will impact any other fixed-wing options that they might have. Like for the GT3 (whenever that iteration is updated), will it have completely different body work in that area? Kind of eliminates options for aftermarket wings also... hmmm intentional?!

Must be close to being in production as those are delivery protection tape on those spy shots. I wonder if when the factory comes back on line after the summer holiday it'll be producing 991s?

panny has 2 wings designs: 1 that pops up and 1 that pops out and extends to the side.
in the photos here and ones from the media test drives in South Africa one can see the 2 panels.
it will be interesting to see the folding wing designs in the TT and GT cars.

Front is from a 60's era ferrari (which I like). Rear is amalgam of Jaguar and 996 (which I don't like). From other pictures, interrior taken from George Jetson's car
