Are the wheels/tires bigger OD or did the car around them shrink?

First glance looks more like a Cayman than current car.

I believe the S will now be sporting 20s. Jeez. What next? Spinners? I can't imagine what 305/20 PSC will cost!

any industry wants prices to go only up no matter what. i wonder what will they set as a base price for 991 gt3 cars. i have a certain feeling it is not going to stay where 997 cars were.

...and I was just going to say how much I like the look from the front.

In general, I think the overall look is very nice. Anything new is going to look a little too different for a while. The more I look at the photos, the more I like it. The front certainly looks great to me. The rear looks good too. The side view is a little harder to get used to.

I like the short front fenders. I remember while in P school and we got the first look at the Panamera and I have a much better feeling looking at this car.
