For those that find the 992 hideous...

I agree with bmcginn.
991 looks so outdated now.
New is alway good in cars and all other fields of mechanical engineering.
And with the styling of the convertibles, no real structural changes from 991, just the same.

991.x looks timeless now,....992 just looks odd and cheaper now.

Inspiration for the little sliver-like grill cover?
Somehow all of it conspires to make the rear look taller and more bulbous than the 991 cab, but hopefully the production version will be less awkward.

There hasn't been a Cab that looked good, regardless of generation. The 996 Cab was far worse, imo.
I also find it really amusing that every thread now is just "I hate 992 this, I hate 992 that".
Everyone is just basing their opinions about the base 992.1 on its first MY entry, and not even giving Porsche enough time to roll out the variants that matter, like the GTx variants.
Personally, I am waiting for the 992.2 GT3 and think it will be more flushed out and fantastic.

I know they have to change something when they roll out a new version but making changes just to make changes does not always mean the new version will be better, such as the 992. I was hoping it would grow on me since I really want to like it since it represents the brand but it has yet to happen.

The 991 doesn't even look close to being outdated let alone "so outdated". Don't try as hard next time.

We went to dinner this evening and from our table I could see the butt on my Targa GTS and I remembered the above pic. I may be biased but mine looks WAAAAAY better than that!
