The proportions are too similar to the Cayman for me. The idea does sound exciting.

I love the look of it! It's like a less "concepty"/toyish version of the 918.

Maybe the 918 just was the tryout car they had toi make to be able to produce this car? If it looks anything like this rendering, I've gotta say it's one of the sexiest car I've seen! Mix that with some nice Porsche philosophy and technology and you've got the ultimate car!

Could not agree with you more. Crazy what is happening to the industry. If you ask me, the new 991 7MT is one of the best I have driven in a ages. Just plug that in and we are good!
