    That back end is too hatchback-ish and ugly. Rather have the CGT or 997 taillights/rear end.

    No one has photos of the black car with the wing, as its the turboed version, but some one needs to send Porschse a note that Nissan is not in Gardena Ca any more.

    notably they have been testing around that area.

    I think they do. I know they used to have a Porsche Styling/design facility in Huntington Beach. Plus they've got a race engine facility in Irvine that may double as a test facility.

    not really but every time Porschse wanted to come out with this car there is some sort of curse out there that this car never sees production. this car was orginanilly was to be a mid engined RWD set up back in 1990.

    I'm a porschephile. I was hoping and praying they'd end up bringing back the 928 or something similar. From what I can see in the pictures that mule is just plain ugly. Of course its intended to be such as mule with the camouflage and all... but just ugh.

    Ugliest car ever. And its not little details that can be changed before release that make it so; the fundamental shape of it is fugly.
