Default Any pics of a 992 next to a 991?

Surprised that with all the completely bare 992's running around, I haven't seen one pic of it next to a 991. The real "truth" as to how it will look won't be known until we can see how its presence differs from the 991, since via solo pics, they look like basically the exact same car with some slightly different adornments.

One of the earlier mules. Not the same model though. And not at the same angle to the camera.

Oh yeah, forgot about that one. Thanks. The 992 noticeably more beefy when side to side. The 991 a bit more lithe.

Is that a hatch on the left rear wing?

I think you mean gas cap on the left. Is this a first for 911?

First on the left NO , they were that way from the beginning until the 996.

First on the rear fender YES, but it's likely a decoy as the fuel tank is still in the front of the car. Or worse, it's some kind of charging port for the Prius version to come...

Has it got creases in the body panels? I hate those angles on all new cars these last few years, particularly BMWs and Mercs. The 991 has remained primarily rounded and tactile (and easier to remove dings and dents!). They creased up the 718 and previous 981 from the 987, although still more subtle than most other manufacturers I guess.
