Bizarre.

Ok....I'm a huge 992 fan but now looking at this side picture, I agree the front looks a little weird. It's huge and weird. It's like looking at a giant mole on someone's face and you just cant look away, you just keep staring at it wondering WTF? I'll chalk it up to the "camera angle".

I thought I liked the front....until the last few posts. On a light colored car the hood line is pretty bad.

From the side the nose looks like a 996. Not the design inspiration they should have went for. They lengthened the nose from the headlight forward.

Front fascia on this yellow car is horrible. I don't mind the rear, however.

On paper it is one of these designs that sounds great. Execution wise they changed somethings for the worse. The 991.2 had a hidden third brake light. Now it is in the worst place possible.

Lots of odd lines. I am sure they will fix things eventually but I am a really happy camper that I bought a Carrera T.

What a disaster.

The car looks EXACTLY like the spy photos which means the car still looks like an unfinished , choppy mess.

WTF is with that third brake light ? WHY WHY WHY would that become a prominent design feature for the rear of the car?

The interior........ There are no words to better describe it beyond calling it a choppy , unfinished , ergonomic mess....

Whoever let that gaping transition from the cluster to the center nav screen make it to final production should be drug out back and ............

What a disaster.

Thanks Porsche , for making all my worst fears from the spy photos come true!

The car overall is good! What is a kick in the nuts is that 3rd brake light: what the hell?! Why not making only 2 red vertical line instead of that “square”?!

A black wrap film in the middle will fix it! Absolutely!
