    What should Porsche do?

    I've quickly done some scribbles of a possible new 911-back.
    IMO the sketch shows that porsche has the perfect DNA and must not fear the attack of audi with the R8.
    I love porsche and i think the company has a great future.
    So no longer sleepless nights for porsche lovers...

    Re: What should Porsche do?

    Farina, thank you for the beautiful sketches.

    Porsche should use LED's for the entire light cluster: red for brake lights and amber for turn signals.

    I do not understand why the U.S. DOT allows red rear turn signals. Have they ever driven in heavy traffic under dark, rainy conditions? Even the U.S.A. CGT has red rear turn signals versus its European counterpart:

    Now, that's called fresh design . Unmistakably Porsche yet fresh and different.

    Ron, I havent seen it anywhere else before. I found it directly on the designer's homepage while looking for automotive design. But I'm sure it's everywhere by now. It's awwesome.

    Re: What should Porsche do?

    This designer is absolutely brilliant. How much I'd like that people at Porsche would do a "moove".and in a brilliant and "new" design, not forgetting the 911 essence.

    In this really inspirated drawings we can see one of the possible directions of the evo...

    Thanks Dr. Phil for posting, and thanks Mr. Tommy Forsgren for his creations...please continue! (With the permission of "our" "Rennteam Designer", of course )

    Not long after passing my driving test here in the uk i encountered some u.s car with the red indicators, i first thought he was braking until it started pulsing off and on i clicked in that it was the indicators...

    but its rather daft to use red as the indicators when orange is much better because then they have different signals for braking and indicating...
