Contrary to most cars on the market Porsche has decided to mount the brake calipers on the front section of the disc. Nissan did the same with the GT-R

I love that bit they are showing.

imitation or flattery?

Does anybody else feel this media approach including the editing and music is close to the BMW Concept of marketing?

If only the sketch was a realistic interpretation of what is coming but comparing it to the spy shots including the most recent that roofline is more bloated hatch than low slung coupe as revealed in this sketch.
(And yes I see the Porsche curved window line through the squared off disguise ) That roof is still there.

I have no doubt of course that it will be the best performance luxury sedan in the segment. The evidence there is on the development programme (How long have we seen photos since of mules and prototypes?) Surpassing the M5 and yes the RS6 but that's evolution for you of course Mercedes are first up to bat and how they do will define the benchmarks for the segment Just as it is for now the M5 that determines the rules.

Honestly, I'm numb and indifferent to the new picture. We have seen so many scoops that we all know what the car is gonna look like. The only thing left in our imagination is whether this thing is really gonna be as ugly as some of us fear it would..................................
