Look at what Ferrari are doing
If they make it they will turn the supercar category on it's head. It will make the Sumo-sized Veyrons look like dinasaurs.
If Porsche wants a set of principles for the 911 they should hire Gordon Murray and get him to lay down the strategy for them. Murray designed the McLaren F1, various F1 winning cars for Brabham, and is currently designing an eco-friendly city car. There's probably no one better right now to design the car for Porsche.
But knowing Porsche they will sit their engineers and designers in layzee boy recliners and tell them to take it easy and just add more power. It's a shame Porsche don't really care about engineering excellence anymore.
