Default Porsche or BMW

I was watching MotorTrend TV or AutoWeek or MotorWeek... I can't remember. But there was a comment about the BMW 645i that made me think. They said that the 6 series looks alot like the Porsche 911 when the trunk if off. I did some editing and totally agree.

What you think. O'l Bangle must have some buddies at Porsche...

I absolutely agree. I was thinking the same thing since the 645 first came out. I never did the photoshop of it, but now that I see it more so I believe it

Never really noticed until now, it looks about 6x better too, ACS / HAMANN / HARTGE, et al: time for a trunk lip conversion!!

I mean seriously, if WCC can put a motorized bowling ball rack in a car, how hard could it be??
