The wheels aren't to my taste but I agree with VanB - it's a lot closer to the Mission E concept than the disguised spy shots had led us to believe. Not entirely sure about that front end but I'm sure it will grow on me, and look forward to seeing what it looks like in other colours and with different wheels. The performance specs were also better than I was anticipating - will be interesting to see how this filters down into the next Macan!

The wheels & white bodywork have clearly been chosen to make this production model as similar to the Mission E concept as possible. :)

I like the looks. I have always liked Panamera looks but not the size. Not keen on yellow brake calipers which are ok with some external colours but not others. I assume Porsche will have a recolour at high cost option!!!!

I can't get past the price. Took a Turbo S and added things to make it liveable, as you have to with all Porsches, and I was staring at £159k.
They should have a simple £1k option to have someone pick all the options for you to save you time and sanity!
