Thoughts on the car?

Also don't like the rear badge, both 911 and Carrera? Redundant?

My only complaint is not I cannot afford one.

I've always favored the smaller front chin spoiler openings of let's say the first gen Boxster over the gaping big mouth high HP 911 models.

However, the twin side radiator look is one of the 911's most copied features. Other manufactures use black plastic block-off plates, but they copy this look.

The lower chin spoiler valance is one area they change year to year, so I'm not upset at all with what I see as I know this too shall change.

EDIT:

I took a second look at the link provided:

Those for sure look like operable shutter vanes up front.

I wonder what the center opening is used to cool.

The more I look at it, the more it seems there is a center cover plate or trim piece missing.
