I don't know. I'm a red kind of guy, but the front end of that looks like a beetle. Still underwhelmed. And the lips on the rims, in that position, make the wheels look like white-walls!

The red is looking exceptionally good.
I think it will look really good with some HRE 841 rimz.

Those rims also look even more vulnerable to damage than my current 18" light alloys--the lips seem to really project out there. Maybe that's just an optical illusion.

I'm with you. When I heard it was going quasi-retro with a 993-inspired front end, I was hoping it would capture the elegance and yet aggressiveness of that design.

Didn't happen IMHO.

Yeah, it's too bad you can tell the difference between a 911 and Boxster now from the front
