Re: Spy shot of C7

Looks more like a photoshop or colored drawing than spy shot, but looks very nice!

It is a photoshopped test mule picture, something almost all car magazines publish lately to offer their customers something "spectacular". Unfortunately most of them "forget" to mention that the pictures don't show the real thing.

Re: Spy shot of C7

What is the real thing? More and more confusing information pops up. AMS is reporting 260 HP ( that seems wrong ) and a funny name. We had rumours being not a coupe but a hard top SLK like version. So what do we know for certain today?

Re: Spy shot of C7

How do you get to the engine compartment from the top?

Re: Spy shot of C7

I believe it still would be from under the car.

AMS says 280 HP for the base model and I read somewhere something about 320 HP for the top model.
A turbo engine is rumoured to be in the planning but a decision hasn't been taken yet because it could hurt 911 sales.

What do we know? Exactly as much as Porsche wants to let us know.

A lot of BS is out there too to confuse people, apparently the "Cayman" is a very important new product to Porsche. Let's wait and see what comes next...Alligator?

Agree with you on thaqt 100%. All the pics are fake and photoshop, because no uncamoed cars have been on the road yet, and that is the same with the "997 C4S with aerokit" thing. We know exactly what porsche wants us to know, there is no confirmed info yet, is there? So we'll just have to be patient I fear, for porsche does not want us to know too much yet

Re: Spy shot of C7

No offense, but isn't this a pretty old picture that was posted here some weeks ago?

Yeah i think you're right, i recall seeing this picture some time ago. It looks nice though, and if this is what it ends up looking like i wouldn't be disappointed.

I don't know why Porsche is so overconcious regarding sales figures - earnings still remain in the Porsche family. There is too much brain and not enough heart in those cars right now.

Just my 02 cents!
