2020 NEXT GENERATION 992 SPY PICS & RELEASE
#526
Meh. Saw almost nothing inside or outside that's better than current. Either neutral or worse. Not impress. Some of it is just focus group based fumbling that has nothing to do with the emission nonsense.

Some shots of the very 718ish front bumper. Also a whole lot of 959.

I think it looks good. But Porsche has never IMHO gotten the front end of the 911 to look quite right in the water-cooled era. Since '99 they've had to fit large radiators in the front bumper, and cutouts to allow airflow. Just isn't nearly as elegant and clean as, say, a 993 front end.

Straight line is the production panel. The curved line is the disguise to make it appear, at a quick glance, to resemble the current car.

The essential headlight pillars keep shrinking and I think Porsche thinks they can get away with it because of fugly abominations like the slant noses and 959. Both were ugly and neither was a 911. The slant nose 911s were the ugliest 911s ever made, and it's as if they're trying to normalize those abominations by gradually sculpting the front to resemble that pinewood derby look. They got the 996 so wrong that there was significant blowback so they made improvements in 997 and 991, but now appear to be going the other way. I'm selfishly glad they're doing this as it removes my desire to trade up, at least to that generation.
