You wouldn't happen to know anything about it would you?
If it came out looking anything like that drawing, it's be awesome looking. The Porsche freaks may complain about the front engine layout, but they also complained about the Cayenne. Look at what happened there!

Great pics !
New wheel design is really interesting. Mirrors also look cool.
But specs ? No difference with 996 ?

i didnt think it could be done, but a porsche with 4 doors that looks that good? it doesnt even look longer then the BMW 6 series. the only thing that isnt to my liking there for a 4 door ... coupe... is the LED tail-lights. she looks to be a Front engine, and id guess it will be AWD, and the motors from the Ceyanne to be offered since it is the other front engine production vehicle.

awsome teaser

About that 997, i really like those outside mirrors on it.
About the 4door coupe, IMO thats not very good, this way porsche would become some kind of sporty version of MB. I think they should make a GT.
It looks very good from the front, but on the side pic the nose of the car looks horrible.

here you´ll find some infos about the GTC, including the info that it won´t look like that

GTC

well, don´t be surprised, but it really has something to do with MB, some ppl here at PAG had been a bit shocked when MB released it´s CLS Coupe, because the GTC´ll go into this direction....slightely....
so, there´s no need for a GT, and so decided the guys in marketing, the ppl who want a GT´ll buy a Turbo or Carrera, the GTC should be a 4door sedan to compete e.g. with the 612 from Ferrari... to be honest i really like the idea of the GTC, it´ll be a great car, VERY powerful too, trust me , ppl shouldn´t reduce Porsche just to "911" and realize that this times are over...

guys, guys, i already know soooooo much about e.g. the 997 and some other stuff comming out of EZW soon, so calm down, PAG just started :shock: there´s so much ahead...
just take the 997, i already know some new "details" related to lap times, specs, and i´m not only talking about hp ..... so there´ll some surprises, trust me...

ever since the Cayenne was first introduced, i felt it was obvious that PAG was doing something more then just changing course, but rather expanding. the Cayenne has grown on me primarily because of its vast abilities, rather then its neutral styling. i dont think the car really sticks out that much.

the idea seems grand for the 4 door grand touring porsche. but i wont hold my breath for something that does or doesnt scream something outrageous ( Bangle design is easily seen from a distance, but much of it im not liking ) so time will tell.
