    I could almost give it a pass because it's basically a racecar, so everything back there has a purpose but if you take that away, it could be in the running.

    The i8 makes a serious run here, atleast it's been discontinued and Tyoe R is also a complete disaster all the way around, it may have the record for too many creases in the history of automotive design.

    This is a good hijacking....waiting for Monica to come in with her pic, she's got her work cut out!

    Certainly a great car, although ever since the 991 it's become too big. 997 is the way to go for a modern 911. That 992 rear is not pretty though. They didn't execute the slats very well and the black plastic near the exhaust isn't great either. Also not in love with the taillights.

    Your points are well made, no doubt and I agree with you about the size but to me, it's one of the few cars that has pulled off the enlargement in size well. Little factoid for you, because although I'm married to mid-year Corvette coupes I've been having a steamy affair with 911's, so this should come as no surprise, on the Carrera, the vented area out back above the engine, has its 3rd brake light in the middle, with 2 slats, flanked by 9 slats in black on each side...9 9 2, can't make this stuff upThe Post a Picture of Your Ride as it Sits Thread I furthered my fantasy affair with the 911 by building a TURBO 992 online and without getting crazy on leather everything in the interior and I do mean EVERYTHING, i.e. heater vent surrounds and steering column, I was at $225K, damn affairs are expensiveThe Post a Picture of Your Ride as it Sits Thread

    Oh yeah I knew all about the significance of the slats/vents I just don't particularly like the way they look.

    And yes they are crazy expensive but it's certainly the car that is the best at everything. One of the few "super cars" that you can legitimately daily.

    Daily drive...exactly! No blind spots, no people running up on trying to take a pic and causing an accident, not getting held up at the gas station, noone thinking your a DB and it's an iconic shape!
