Since we do not like the name of the new Cayman let us suggest names for the new car which may not have a name yet. In that names start with a C we should follow that lead. We can suggest names and then vote on the best one. The winner will get nothing but we can send the winning vote to Porsche.

 

My best guess:

What about CHIMERA or CHIMAERA

An organism, organ, or part consisting of two or more tissues of different genetic composition, produced as a result of organ transplant, grafting, or genetic engineering.
A substance, such as an antibody, created from the proteins or genes or two different species.
An individual who has received a transplant of genetically and immunologically different tissue.
A fanciful mental illusion or fabrication.

 

What about CHIMERA or CHIMAERA.

Already taken by TVR in the UK, and they are a Porsche competitor, so unlikely to give up a name on an existing production car.

 

How about the new "Charade?"

Hard to tell what it is since it looks like a 911, accelerates like a Cayenne, has the BMW sports sedan appeal; the only thing certain about it: way over-priced.

 

I vote for the refreshingly honest "Corporate Sellout"

 

RattleSnake

 

i agree....now its all about business....no more tradition

 

But I would rather see Porsche making money (and perhaps even re-enter racing full force) vice having a company on the brink of takeover by some other entity.

 

Very clever - watch Porsche's trademark filings!

How about the Porsche "Chalet". 4 doors and everything but the kitchen sink.

 

hehehe. That's a good one! Competition for Maybach. Give that 600 HP engine in the C-GT a REAL job!!!

 

 

I could think of a c word. How about a b word, bmw.

 

Carrera F ------ F can stand for Four, or Family, or any other F word you like.
