I was at the German GP yesterday - Oh MY Gawd did the MB track/safety cars sound good! Even the wagon, WOW!

Btw, like the front end, maybe a little busy, but that is a very strange engine cover line.

I'm not too sure about that. I tried putting the 918 Spyder tail lights on my 998, and I don't know if it was just me, but they did NOT fit or look good at all. In the spyshots where you can barley see the new tail lights, they look very similar to the 997, only longer and flatter.

If I saw a 911 prototype, I'd be all over that thing, taking such detailed pictures, I'd probably forget to take full body shots! I'd really want to see whats behind the slits on the faux wing in the rear.

Meh. Great, it looks exactly like it's looked for the past 15 years. Why nothing new, Porsche?

Obviously Im just guessing here but I dont think the 911 will have round front lights. I think it will have similar frontlights to the Panamera but not the same. Also Im sure in terms of fuel economy and environment the new 911 will be in a class of its own.
