My take? It will undoubtably be made of unaffordium alloy.

Available only to those with a special relationship with their dealer. Oh yes, please dig deeply into your wallet for consideration.
I'm at a point in my life where I could afford a new Porsche. The cars they make, particularly the access to those cars, just don't interest me anymore.

The shape is pretty. I wonder if there's any AI modeling involved.

Different wheels and strange taillights.

I kinda like it but agree with Milt, the back end is a bit off.

The front with that splitter intake combo looks great. Overall a good design but the rear lights look like plastic jewellery.
The interior... Way too many screens and distractions but this is really cool (and it would make a great desk clock).

I guess an all-electric halo is inevitable.

I read a short blurb in the new Pano on the 718 Spyder RS which sounds to be pretty bad ass. If you buy one you get access to buying a Porsche Design titanium watch. I wonder how much $ that will be!
The 718 Spyder, which would be an excellent driver minus the PDK will of course only go to a select few, which is a shame. |
