Sign of the Apocalypse

as if an SUV wasnt bad enough, porsche is now likely to begin production on a sedan. http://www.autoweek.com/news.cms?newsId=102871 kinda fugly to me, like a stretched 928. it just looks too long.

It comes out the same year as the 'next' Z-car. Maybe the Z will be a 4-door too!

That proposed new Porsche is in direct response to the new Mercedes "4 Door Coupe". Nissan knows far better than to mess with the Z heritage and legacy by making it anything other than a 2 door coupe. As for the G35 Sedan... It's not the first time that another Nissan automobile has shared it's powerplant or other components with the Z... It's not an indication that the Z will change from it's roots as a two door couple. For the record, that porsche is damn ugly. ANyone seen the new Mercedes that looks like a Civic Si on steroid? You gotta wonder what is happening in the world when German cars start looking like Japanese cars...
