Nope, of course not. But how does it shape up in the flesh? Those extra four inches in the wheelbase give it a new stance for sure but it could only be a 911. And the Panamere-esque cabin is a huge step up. Those numbers are impressive too, not least the eco stats. The now 3.4-liter Carrera has 350hp and will do 28.7mpg on the Euro Combined cycle, the 3.8-liter S hardly any thirstier. Not bad for cars able to hit 60mph in just 4.4 and 4.1 seconds respectively. You can buy your own later this year, with prices starting at $82,600 for the Carrera. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5suHzVMr7I http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=By49-ocFAJY&feature=player_embedded http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6177/6166406965_54774426fc_o.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6153/6166944170_c2511330af_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6152/6166944426_cfe4f7c20d_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6207/6147262986_92a2e7d2e6_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6177/6147256468_73bb97887f_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6168/6146705779_eefbcd5779_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6073/6147253688_001225c5b4_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6192/6147369890_60c1817fdf_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6078/6147623620_c860af4a60_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6164/6147622488_f944b9c844_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6193/6150534342_6ee5e5e29e_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6074/6150534182_6d42bcc4d7_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6169/6149982747_871290e280_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6198/6149982985_c54c986da9_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6185/6149983119_3ae6d721a8_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6197/6150535294_571b70e99d_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6178/6150535070_c547ef10a2_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6198/6149984107_70a13d8393_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6078/6149984289_5c26ddc3f4_b.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6203/6150536308_15dc4799b2_b.jpg
