Ferrari Cayman
Funny that the "artists renderings" of the new entry level Ferrari are photoshopped pics of the cayman. It's even more funny that they don't even think it will be a mid-engined car.

Well, it does appear to have a nice smile built into the front grille! I'd be grinning if I were driving it, that's for sure.

I do see the Cayman similarities, which I did not pick up on when I read winding road a couple of days ago. Good eye!

I never thought a Cayman crossed with an Elise could look like a Ferrari, but there it is.

wow that is very nice. it does look like a cayman.

i also think porsche copied the ferrari front hoods in the new 997 and boxsters. our 986 hoods are squared and now round exactly like a ferrari front hood.

Why would ferrari put a front mounted engine in this car it doesn't make any sense,
and the similarities with the cayman i agree.
Maybe they wouldn't want it to out perform the 430 or is it another PORSCHE IDEA.
