We are a long way from a complete reveal. Making a definitve decision on whether they like the design or not would be a little premature. Here's test mules of the 991 to keep perspective.

Do the brake disks on this one look extra large to anyone else? And the front looks like it has adaptive cruise control, maybe standard with collision avoidance? |

They do to me, probably because of the new 500 HP base engine :cool:

Now if it looked like this, I'd be making the deposit now. :D https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...d6248b8760.jpg |

I don't hate it. Doesn't matter to me though as I still plan on ordering a 991.2 GTS at the end of my current lease.

Subtle. I likey. From the 928 flush-style headlights to the 959-style rear wing. Seems larger than a 991.

This will likely be a MY2020, released in late 2019. Expect major interior revisions (Panamera-like), very minor engine changes (although likely that hybrid model), the same greenhouse, and tweeked body changes.
Similar to 996 to 997 models. |

This definitely looks a little cab-forward. Could be an illusion. They can keep their 3.0L blower. I'm sticking with my GTS |

lol. not really a fair comparison. 964 will always be my favorite generation.
https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...c1e928c825.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...2e0a42050e.jpg Don't get me wrong -- I like 964 just fine. But they had a rough spell for 15+ years from 95 till 2012 or so because people didn't like the way they looked. And it would still not be on my short list for an air cooler, despite being a better performer and rarer than either 3.2 or SC. Even though the 964 you posted looks about as good one can look (and it does look good), when compared to the 3.2 it looks thick and bulky where the older car looks thin and sleek. Optical illusion brought about by the black rubber molding strip above the rockers as much as anything. |

I honestly thought this was a convertible Mustang when I first glanced at the photo! :D https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...6d40e7bc93.jpg This (minus the whale tail) is what I think of when I think 911. (SC's were new when I got my license.) |
