Porsche Ferdinand

This sketch was made by Vlad, the owner of the GDB site. You already saw some of his great work so i wanted to show you this one too.

If you ask me, this is AWESOME!!!

This is how i'd like Panamera's rear to look...

Now that's a good looking chop. I'd like the evolution of the 911 body to look a little like this - more modern, more sleek, more updated, yet unmistakably 911.

i feel porsche needs to do something drastic soon..those new cars that more or less are facelifts in terms of look dont cut it anymore for me personally

Who cares as long as their sales/revenues/profits break record after record.

It is hot Artist, I agree with you about that. But I don't think we can expect Porsche to be drastic -- Porsche has such a strong market position and the 911 is central to the brand identity.

Porsche design is absolutely evolutionary ....a slow progression, just constantly updating and improving the basic 911 concept from 1964. Porsche is really unlike any other car manufacturer in the world ...I cannot think of any other car that has remained so close to its original concept -- I guess some might suggest the MB SL, but the SL has changed a lot over the decades.

Man, after 70 years they still have mostly the same/similar nose of the protoypes.
Porsche design progresses slow, really slow.

That is unless you buy the conspiracy theory that Porsche designers constantly take brakes (long and many) to go out and for beer and sausages so almost no work is done.

LOL..well man there is potentiall in these new modells to do something drastic..like in the new cayenne or the panamera..
i can understand that they are very conservative with the 911, but i think more radicall new modells would do them good..

Nice sketch! On the issue of the name...I would like that despite that someone may see it as emulating Ferrari naming practices, and Porsche shouldn't emulate anyone...but...I think it would be nice regardless....
