        So the lazy ass Porsche design team mocked up something that doesn't just look like another 911 rehash? Except this time, they've nicked the front of a Ferrari and the back of a Tesla! Given, it is very pretty!

            AWESOME (even if one can look at it only in pictures). :)

            Me, I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest.
            Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for...

                  I've always had a very strong dislike for VW sports cars (I'm primarily a Jag man) but, hey, I gotta get me one of those! That is a sizzling hot motor (or is it the man-flu talking?). I wonder how many hundreds of thousands of pounds they'll be if they ever see the light of day?

                        A bug in Engadget's gallery that they seem to refuse to fix. The url gets fudged. Click on an image you'll see it appends either a # to the start or a # plus another photo id, remove the hash and the old photo id, and hit enter :)

                            Actaully we used to do that to XJ6s in the early 80's; used to smack in a Chevy 350 and chuck the Jag plant out: they leaked oil, a lot and the Chevy was easier to maintain and used less gas. You could buy custom mounting kits: quite a simple job when you'd done 10 plus in a year as they tended to require only minor adjustments to fit!

                              The back is from the Porsche Carrera GT, released much earlier than the Tesla Roadster. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porsche_Carrera_GT[^]

                                In my Porsche I threw out the junk engine and installed an engine from Opel instead.
