The Porsche thread.

Where's the cool tail with the Gurney flip trailing edge? Where are the hips and the width in relation to the greenhouse? Where are the cool proportions?

So, if they've very cleverly hidden a cool new car inside a hacked up Panamera, then ignore me. Carry on.

If this is the watered down "buildable" version of the prototype, then it's a dog. That's not the design quality we're used to seeing from Porsche. It would be a bland blob at any price, but this car will be placed up between the Panamera and the 911. It will bomb.

Maybe they're really good and they've fooled us all.

Who says it's the Mission E? Looks like a new Panamera to me. If it really is the Mission E, they messed up big time.

[LateFan]

Exactly.

All the magazines are showing these Mission E test mules.

<EDIT> Look at the rear door opening cut line in the side pictures, and the B-pillar post - that's a Panamera (shell, anyway). I'm hopeful the real car bits are hidden inside that boat.

Luft 2018 show







804 Chassis 03, the 1962 Dan Gurney F1 winning car


"The 1949 Porsche Gmünd SL 063 Le Mans Class Winner, restored by Rod Emory, has been a star of Pebble Beach, Rennsport Reunion, and Luftgekühlt last year. The earliest successful Porsche at Le Mans, it just might be the most valuable Porsche in the world." - Road & Track

If you saw a striking silver/blue ‘70 S at the show, I had a hand in its build. I had a hand in a couple other cars at the show and some friends of mine built engines and fuel injection for a few as well.

I did not like the limited attendance. I thought the venue was striking and unique, although the long bathroom and food lines were a drag. Whoever the location scout is has vision and talent, that’s for damn sure.

I’ve worked with air-cooled Porsches since ‘05 and have been restoring them since ‘07. I have no problems sharing my knowledge via PM if anyone has any questions- I’m not really up to date on values but if you need to know what space cam you need for a 019 pump build or who you should have rebuild your MFI throttle bodies, I’m down to share what I know.

And a roadside-find, a Porsche 924 with Nissan headlights.
For...reasons, I guess :
