Looks like an Audi from the back.

So long as Porsche doesn't drop the Price point below $50K. Its fine...when they start making a small boxster or smaller cayenne -- its going to dilute brand value.

They can make as many 80-150K cars as they want, fine by me.

I think both a smaller entry level car and a smaller cayenne are coming.... how else are they going to hit the 150k units a year figure they want.

new intel:



(AUTOCAR)
A two-door, front-engined Porsche GT coupé is being planned as part of the second-generation Porsche Panamera family,
highly placed sources have told Autocar. The model is scheduled for 2014/15.

Porsche is planning the new two-door GT on a short-chassis version of the next Panamera’s underpinnings.

It will attempt to capture the magic of the 928 coupé from the late 1970s.
A new Porsche 928 — possibly badged 929 — would give Porsche entry to a sector that has grown to over 10,000 sales a year,
thanks to models like the Aston Martin DB9, Bentley Continental and Ferrari California.
Porsche is understood to be planning two variants of the 929: a coupé and a soft-top convertible.
The 929’s styling is a closely guarded secret, although these images from Julliana Cho, a Porsche-sponsored student who has just
graduated from the vehicle design course at the Royal College of Art, might give some clues to the themes being developed inside
Porsche under design boss Michael Mauer. They show a more geometric design language with a much stronger-looking front end.
However, any widening of the Panamera line-up depends on Porsche significantly expanding build capacity, said our source.
“At the moment, derivatives of the Panamera are not planned for the first generation,” said the insider. “We hope to add them to the
second generation, provided we can find necessary capacity.”
Porsche has announced a major investment programme at its Leipzig plant in Germany, where the Cayenne is produced, which will
increase capacity.
Principally, there’s a new body assembly line to build the new Cajun compact SUV but it could also allow Porsche to switch production
of the Panamera body from Volkswagen’s Hannover facility to Leipzig for the second-generation model.
In turn, that gives Porsche the flexibility to spin body derivatives off the Panamera. As a result, a third derivative — a sporty estate in
the mould of the Mercedes CLS wagon due in 2012/13 — is possible.
“We have ideas to extend the Panamera line-up, including other body derivatives — a shooting brake, for example,” said our source.
