    It’s just not for me.
    It certainly isn’t ugly or goofy.

    I like it because it's not so much "retro" as it is... what's the word that best describes it... "continuation." As if they'd just kept modernizing the same design language (a bit like the Challenger, except the Challenger is more of a 5/4ths replica of the original).

    The 911 is the poster child for a continuation of a design language.
    Hard to argue with that.
    Challenger= 5/4ths indeed!

    Bill the Challenger comparison sums it up nicely! The same familiar look but different all at the same time.

    and when you have a design catalogue that goes for 8 Chapters you can mix and max to make old new again but still 'comfortable'.

    I posted this earlier in Vintage. Now you know why I don't like angry insect cars. It was always a challenge as to which set of keys I'd reach for. But generally , the Maranello won.
