UUUUUggghhh. I like Pcars for their 911s. That is about it. Even the SUV doesn't do much for me.

I like the Aston Martin version better, which, if they actually produce it, will be the likely successor to my current car.

It'll probably have a special Louis Vuitton edition if they decided to produce it.

A 4-door Porsche is an oxymoron.

Here's a good vid of the car...proportions look terrible.

The Aston Rapide will look better and cost more than a DB9.

Nah, I'm the diehard style with the Pcars. It is just plain ugle and not a true sedan for me. i love the Aston coupe. That is all I'd take over the E, but it is a coupe. i hate fake sedans. If 5 can't sit comfortably and me hold my cup of coffee, then it ain't a sedan. If I wanted a sports car, I'd get a Vette (NOT!!)

Funny guy! U know you'd love to sit your **** behind the wheel of a new C6 Z06 It'll romp your modded E55, but you still got the 4 door, interior thing locked

In 2008 the new Z comes supercharged w/650+ hp

It will probably be the best handling sedan in the world....I just hope they make it look good....all the chops arent exact and the camo cars are very covered.....people are saying it will start at over 100k others are saying it may be avail with a regular engine....only time will tell.

When it comes to Porsche, you have to have the 911, period. For me, it's got to be the 911TT, nothing else in the lineup would do it.
