Well if the target was to be uglier than the Cayenne they've succeeded!

Regarding the Panamera...

I think with just a few subtle changes, it could have been quite attractive (not as attractive as the Aston Rapide, but not the actual pig it appears in the photos).

I played around with some minor modifications (within the constraints of the platform architecture and with an eye to what I think the stylists were trying to achieve) and came up with this...

Original (for reference):


Modified:


Still not a thing of great beauty, but at least now, I wouldn't sever my own head rather than look at it.

Thoughts and feedback/suggestions welcome...

This seems like an appropriate thread to bring back my Lotus Esprius.

You should send your portfolio to Porsche, - they're hiring at the moment!

Nice work!
