Default Wait...what?

For those who haven't visited Autoblog today, here're a few examples of their new "backwards cars" series.
Basically, you Photoshop the roof off, reverse it, and put it back on. Makes for some strange looking Porsches.

This one kind of looks like a Pontiac Solstice. Lengthen the nose a bit, shorten and raise the rear deck......maybe that's how GM stylists got there.

I think the Boxster backwards looks like a Toyota MR2 with a longer trunk.
