My 968 and 912E were 4-cylinders, and so were the 356s. 912s, 924s, 944s, and 914s of yore. The history of Porsche is not just 6-cylinders, as many of us who enjoyed the 4-cylinder cars of previous...

Of course beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but to me, this looks like a roof designed by 10 year-old kids after they finished building a slapdash treehouse. :)
