i think they've done a great job on the interior, even if i don't care for infotainment at all.

exterior...hmm, i'm not a fan of widebody's...the 4S models with their red rear reflectors always seemed less pretty than the normal models to me. And this is no exception: i think the rear is the worst part of the car. It's almost a 2-door panamera. The front has a very classic look, which is great, but also the flares make it butch...not subtle anymore.
The whole car becomes almost a parody sketch, with gigantic wheels and knocked out fender flares...it's big and wide which surely compromises it in day to day use.

I guess it's a different car now, for a different world, a different crowd. In my eyes, there is almost no manufacturer building pretty cars nowadays. Everybody is selling badges and trim levels. All is watered down. Same with Porsche and their 'T' models for example.

And it's not that i don't like modern stuff in general. I can't wait for an all electric 911 with 6 tiny electric motors horizontally opposed.
