Lines of the 911

I'm sure many of us find the unmistakable silhouette of the 911 "sexy", but I've always took it more literally and was wondering if anyone would agree.



Here is a 911 Coupe (just to refresh your memory), notice the "fastback" roof line down the rear window and the bumper/license plate area.

Now take that curve and overlay it on top of this...



The lady in the picture seems to be a little on the underweight side, but for a "perfectly proportioned" one, the line would start from the naval and follow the contour of the body.

Quite a few people to whom I've told this seemed to agree. How about you?

Nice Graphics. I would never do it to mine if i had a 911 but i bet someone would. Be careful, your gonna get the ricer crowd all excited. 3 weeks from now your gonna see a civic with thong graphics on the ass end.

There is certainly a resemblance. Like in any 'clinical study' however, one would need more pic samples to make sure.

Funny. One lister on 356talk mentioned that the lines of the 356 reminded him of a lady dog doing the business squat...

Well, when the 1980s hit and all of a sudden seemingly every Porsche had blistered fenders (930s, "turbo-look"s, 944s, etc), I don't think anyone can deny that, from an overhead perspective, the Porsche line took on the hourglass shape of a well-proportioned lady.

And the exhaust location would be about anatomically accurate... Sure, why not?

The 911 was designed the way it was on purpose to excite males subliminally.

Big exhaust pipes need a big dick to fill it. Big flares or tits are sexy unto its own. Big engines or wild women need a man to control it. Sport seats is like filling the bush comfortably. Electric headaches corresponds to the sensitive illogical female mind. Wide tires represents the bush's grip on your dick when pounding hard.

Did I miss anyrthing ?

And I wonder how badly her front tires are worn with all that "toe-in"
