^ not a bloody zebra. It's a 'helicopter view' graphic referencing the 50th anniversary of putting engines in the wrong place.
The same amount of time Porsche has inexplicably failed to offer a high end midengine Porsche that didn't cost $300K and up.

I'm not sure if that's an actual 50th anniversary 991, but I was reading that if you took a regular old 991 and optioned it to the max, you're still far short of Porsche's asking price for that 'special edition' 991... and shockingly, are a mere $10K away from the price of the new 991 GT3, a car that is another level, or two, of durability and spec.
I don't know who buys these 'special edition' Porsches (that are missing limited production engines to justify such pricing) but they are the easiest money for Porsche.
