Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

20 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 5Original post

Nice shots...were you there? Thanks for the sneak-peek!

POST 6Original post

I like the side air intake gills. Also noted the use of the yellow caliper covers. Good lines overall...wonder when we'll see road test results.

POST 7Original post

Very nice from the back, not so from the sides I think! Cool photos, Porsche will be ripped when they hear about it. You saw it HERE ON 986FORUM first!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

POST 8Original post

I do not like the look and feel of the new shift knobs Porsche has designed for their new cars. Reminds me of the nasty round one I yanked out of my 1997 the second I found one on Ebay with which to replace it.

POST 10Original post

It definitely has a profile problem, and the front foglights look too trendy for me. The air intakes now look like Porsche is copying Hyundai rather than Toyota though.

POST 11Original post

Funny, I count seven grown men in the photos and not a single one is it DRIVING it! Somebody hold me back...

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

the rumor is they are shooting a commercial in LA right now. I really dig the side and back. I don't care for the front and interior at all. THose are the ceramic GT3 brakes with the yellow calipers. Molto dinero! The more I see this car the more I'm convinced that this will be the new flag ship of Porsche sports cars. Once they retire the GT3 SuperCup you'll be sure to see this car onthe track racing.

POST 14Original post

I love the body style. I would really go for it if the pointy head were flattened out somewhat, a la speedster. I edited the side view with this in mind... now how do I upload an image? Lets see if this works

POST 15 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

no these photos are in Germany. The LA sightings haven't revealed any pics yet. If you live near Westwood keep your digital camera handy if they haven't already finished shooting the commercial.

POST 16Original post

I don't get the bubble top at all. Now they can't even put a sunroof in it. They should've made it a notchback. It's too 911/Bug/TT/Crossfire looking. A notchback would've made it look a little more Boxster, which we all know is badass looking. Whoever designed the wheels should have their ass kicked. The side vents look even worse than the 987. The rear quarter panel that goes down at a 45 degree angle doesn't work on the 987 and doesn't work here either. Rear quarter windows should've been a little longer. Foglights are lame. 987 front end looks better. Ugly interior with even uglier steering wheel. Nice square glovebox. LOL. Performance-wise, it'll kick ass. But looks-wise, it doesn't move me at all. -

POST 17Original post

call me easily influenced, but it just LOOKS fast....trendy or not.

POST 18Original post

I think it looks good...thyough what's the point of a Boxster that the roof doesn't go down on???

POST 19Original post

I think the car looks cool. Here are a couple revisions. Lose the gills and shift inlet back and up slightly, and 86 the foglights -as such...

POST 20 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Jeph can you put the 911 Turbo healdights on it too?!
