If it makes you feel any better, I agree with you.

The giant openings at the front of the car all blacked out is a trend that I hope will soon die out.

One car in paticular was the leader in that design style, or at least made me aware of it's limitations is the Marussia.

The B1 maybe looked a bit docile from lack of front openings.



The later B2 suddenly looked outrageous.


Porsche has never been for the outrageous, that's more of an Italian thing (and maybe Russian now).

I hope Porsche finds their way back to their traditional value system and roots regarding those front openings, they are garish (for a Porsche) in my opinion.

My only qualifier is that I think we are looking at cars with missing front trim pieces that will complete the final product.

I cannot imagine those structural mounting holes flanking the license plate are the end note. And the center opening it's self is not fully defined either.

I reserve final comment when I see the final design, I do not think photos available today are of the very final design - stuff is missing.
