I noticed that, looked weird but maybe it's the camera...will have to see another shot.

Agree that the wheel arches are awesome and a nod to the 930. I love it.

Not Mark Webber, of course.

Alos, not a fan of the RS Spyder style wheels. Too big. And I have RS Spyders on our Cayenne.

The Fuchs style are much better.

Hated the wheels on the yellow, the blue's look good.

because it’s higher than the other slats and sticks up toward the window too far. Anyone with OCD will immediately say it should be flush with the other slats.

Should have been more like this:

Well... that was meh... Front bumper looks horrible with that giant gaping mouth. Darker color is a must. Third brake light is worse than I thought. Rear looks pretty good on the dark blue car. Overall, exterior is a step back IMO.

The good news is that most of these concerns will likely be remedied with the GT3 so I’m excited to see that reveal in 12-18 months.

I like the new rear brake light. I think it's creative. So I'm with you.

That interior though.... And I feel like the extra tech, such as wet road detection, just aren't my preference. Only my opinion of course.
