That will properly f**k up its lines. Seems to be a mash up of standard and Sport Design bumper too.

That is the Porsche Sport Design bumper. It’s on the 992 configurator on Porsche website.

It almost looks like they replaced the vertical third brake light with the horizontal light bar? Almost looks like the Turbo spoiler on a C2S?

Yes, looks similar to turbo spoiler. There is a wing on top it looks like by the cover.

Guys look at this rear end. Just a nice clean look. The 992 just looks goofy. Goofy fonts on 911 Carrera and PORSCHE upright plastic badge billboard. No good.

Here's where I found the pic in case he decides to post more pics. He works at Thermal Club. I guess that's where Porsche is introducing the 992 to Porsche employees.

Not only do I have an issue with the nubbin shifter, I HATE the fonts used. What were they smoking?? I'd have to get a full badge delete!! How are they going to screw up the "Turbo" font?

Do you know whether the event is rather sooner than later?

It's happening at the Thermal Club in Palm Springs. Probably very soon since all the cars are there already.
