Here's the original image in case you think I fudged that huge schnoz.
Let's see??? A two seater is a blasphemy to be called a sports car and the four seater is a sports car?? The FT 86 is not a sports car it is a sports coupe. The differences are small but they are big differences.

The compairisons pics of the size between these cars is great. Gives me alot better idea of what the car is going to look like when it gets into production. Id like to see one of it compaired to the tc though...lol...maybe that just because i drive a tc.

Not the place to argue the term. I made my comment and you did as well

Hey look! Its just like the TT-RS!



Its got the motor hangin' way out the wheel base! Nyuk-nyuk! Ok I'll stop, us Subarus are guilty too.

But seriously, I didn't think the Cayman had such a big empty nose sticking out, its exactly like the 911 only taller. (?!?) Of course I had to do a Cayman and a 911, since I love one and hate the other.





I got carried away trying to be funny and forgot to measure the pixels correctly on the Cayman, it might be off a smidge.

If those Porsche ones are scaled properly, this is going to be a bit bigger than I was expecting.
