I like touches for this GT3.
I've seen other variations of the 992 in person and my opinion is unchanged. It is such a large car. Not good at all.

Nice attempt, but incorrect. The moved the engine forward to free up more space under the rear of the car, to allow for a huge aerodynamic diffuser that is allowed per current rules and that all their competitors were taking advantage of.
