Those good for nothing German designers put a panel break just above the intake on the Cayman too!

I'm betting they did this purposely to get fence sitters to choose a 911 that was designed properly.

i think this car looks great ! awesome stance . this car will look stellar in person. side profile is very exotic looking with the door cuts and large ducts , i agree that seam is a little odd. the lights look cool too. a lot more flashy than the old cars .

My pet peeve: the brakes look tiny in those big wheels.

I can only assume it's a cost cutting measure. Most likely cheaper to produce 2 small pieces than 1 long, big piece of sheet metal.

That Cayman photo looks like a photoshopped pic of the 2013 boxster spy shot. You can almost guarantee the 2013 Cayman will have a slightly altered front & rear bumpers and headlights.
