Softer lines and edges, looks wider too. I think if they kept the LED's lower in the bumper it would look more aggressive. Where is this pic sourced from? Or is it someones PS?

This is no pic at all. It's a photoshop speculation that has been around for a while. It may not be far off though, with a bloated higher front to meet EU's pedestrian regs and a longer wheelbase (longer than a Cayman) to benefit from large footprint EPA regs. A big leap away from the 911 soul.

Don't like it!! Looks too much like my old 996. Hope it looks better when the real deal hits the road.

I've been thinking about going back to a 993 lately. Just love those 993's.

Not a fan. Too GT-ish; a trend like so many others unfortunately. Whatever it ends up looking like it'll be called a 991 not a 998.

That "photo" is an old photoshop mockup that somebody made. Why does it keep getting posted over and over by people thinking it is a real 998 preview shot !?

I like it, but that's a photoshop done by a member on another forum.
