Yes. It's unfortunate for me. I don't want a 911 that has a rear end like a Porsche Macan/Panamera/Cayman. It just looks like the rest of the lot - nothing special. A unique marque is well into the process of becoming just another product extension.

VW's, Audi's, Porsche - all headed in the same design direction.

Yep, I agree with you there......
I'll wait to see the final product, but based on what I'm seeing now - I'm too sure about the rear end.

It could be the same "leaked" car that we have seen on that workshop photo. I'm not familiar with conspiracy theories but maybe that "leaks" are planned by Porsche just to make the "rush" and discussions between potential future owners about the finished design..?
Maybe I am going too far with this... There is not much time left to the debut... Probably the final design was approved moths earlier.

Came across this video on Instagram of a 992 mule at night. It’s a short video but gives some idea of the sound. Also you can see how bright the dash is and the light bar appears to go across the rear in its entirety (assuming this a 4s). It’s a public page, so you should be able to view. You may need to click twice for sound.

Very personally and very biased but I am REALLY HAPPY that I squeezed my 991.2 2019 GTS in ...

The car (or the audio) is really muffled. I think the particulate filters may kill whatever sound the .2 had left. Even though its no NA motor, it has its charm, and it sounds mutilated in this clip...

Yep, I agree. It sounds a little better on my iphone than my computer, but not the best sound.......

Videos of 992s with several different exhaust systems driving on the Nordschleife have been posted here before. Even with mobile phone camera quality you get a better idea about the sound from that than from one slowly driving in the city.

Come on Porsche. Come the **** on... It looks like a Lincoln, Dodge/Mopar product. It looks cheap.

Who has seen these lights lit up at night? I see these lights very often from afar and I think to myself "992"

Poor image not fully displaying what I'm talking about
