don't matter to me anyway, I won't be getting another 911 for a long time.

i like it...but then again, there haven't been too many 911 generations that I haven't liked (996 doesn't fit my eye that well).
I understand the comments about the rear-end being a mess, but it doesn't seem to have much more lines than the 997. I see a lot of the Panamera design cues in this...good and bad.
One of the design cues that I love about the 997 is the curves, especially the rear quarter. This drawing has the same basic shape, but with tighter creases along those curves giving a more contemporary look.
Like everything else, it might not immediately be that favorable, but will most probably grow on you.

Agree - the rear is f'd. Not smooth, not sexy, not a 911. I hope this is not the real car - gives me 996 headlight-trauma deja vu.

Looks evolutionary. Exactly what a 911 should be. May be my next 911!

I think that although these are renderings, this keeps to the 911 look, with some modernization to the look. The tail is from the Panamara, DRL look like they are from the Cayenne, and the front grill looks like similar to the new GT3RS. As we have seen, renderings/pictures at this stage are never 100% true to the look of the finished car.
I think that it looks great!

Here is a video of how the new wing style works.
