wow!
That car screams supercar at me when looking at it!

But the design and all the technical details are very futuristic....different from what we are used to now
I have to warm up to it slowly,but I`m excited about the new ways and technical solution Porsche is going as Pioneers!!!

Interesting..look at the leather on the steering wheel. Looks well worn..must've been grabbed by a bunch of grubby fingers once too many. I hope that they make that more durable on the production version.

First of all, GREAT writing! And great news, can't wait to see it. Though I don't expect to see a lot here in here Denmark due to the taxes. But much anticipated!

Still I don't quite get what you said about the engine displacement increase. "Expect it to increase but a few liters" from 3.4L. To me a few is 2+ liters making it 5.4+, and I reckon that's unlikely.

Yes I see what you mean, and I am wrong in how I worded it. What I meant to say was that the displacement will increase, say from 3.4L to 3.6L.

I forgot to mention, Porsche is also trying to make it possible to be able to record video using the cameras located on the car. For example, recording your lap at the track...that sorta stuff...

Now doubt, one of the most beautiful cars of the modern era. Thanks for the write up and the pics. I much prefer those wheels to the plastic/see-through ones first shown on the concept!
