Pretender, this is gorgeous. Thanks for posting the pictures.
I think the next 911 is going to be a fabulous car with truly gargantuan performance. I imagine that now Piech has got his hands on Porsche, he will insist on a fairly substantial beefing up of its capabilities. He may even demand further engineering changes to push it far ahead of the competition. I also think that the styling department is due for a shake-up of nuclear proportions.
One thing I've read is that in order to retain separate brand identities, Porsche will use an exclusive range of flat engines. In addition to the 6, there is a flat 4 coming for the entry level model. I just wonder whether a flat 8 is coming for the 911 rather than a V8. I think such an engine would be acceptable for Porsche aficionados whereas a V8 would be sacrilege. Then again, with the entire world downsizing, perhaps it will remain a flat 6.
Anyway, it is certainly nice to know that Porsche is starting to get some real love from Wolfsburg. Maybe at last Porsche will become a true competitor to Ferrari?
I like the Panamera Turbo style rearspoiler on it.
There are pretenders among us.....
Geniuses with the ability to become anyone they want to be.....
