something just doesn't feel right to me. if i had a 100k to spend on a flagship, i would just choose MB or 7 series. maybe even maserati.

The more I look at it, the more I like it. The interior alone blows away much of the competition. Driving dynamics will blow away the competition, and likely so will reliability.

I predict this will do very well for Porsche.

damn, i remember hating on this car a while back.. i think it's grown on me a lot since the last time i saw it, it actually looks very appealing now, maybe cause of how different it is.. can't wait to see it in person

maybe it won't look as bad with a large bolt-on spoiler and nice wheels
