New Porsche Supercar speculation, renderings etc...

[donkeykong]

This is the first (rendered) image of Porsche’s new supercar which will be unveiled during Detroit Motor Show in January!
The car will be powered by a bi-turbo engine with 600bhp. Top speed will be over 300 km/h and 0-100 km/h will be achieved in about 4 seconds.
Porsche’s new supercar is expected to hit the roads in 2014 and fight against the Ferrari 458 Italia and the McLaren MP4-12C.

^^^So is this the 918?

It looks like the new McLaren with Turbo-wheels...

 

[NarutoRamen]

^^No. A hint of McLaren, but a LOT of 360 Modena in there.

This is the first image of nothing. No reference quoted, amateur photo chop - this doesn't warrant a new thread.

This would be one step lower than the 918, wouldn´t it?

 

[Cashmere]

def not the 918, unless Porsche is unveiling something else.

I agree that this chop alone wouldn't warrant a new thread. Yet, Porsche said that they'd show a "spectacular new car" in Detroit, so I guess we can use this thread for any speculation up until its unveiling in two weeks.

that was the point of this thread for others to speculate and give their opinion on what they believe it might be.

Autobild claims it is going to be the 918 Coupe, with a V8 with 600 PS.

This one looks much better.

 

[hoffmeister_fan]

This one looks much better.

Ok, this i can get onboard with. The pic that was posted on the first post looked like something Porsche would release during the early 2000s.

 

[donkeykong]

what do you think of these lastest renderings?

 

[klier]

Much better, the 918 is fantastic!!

 

[dani-san]

this is also nice.

 

[martinbo]

Thread title changed to be more accurate and less misleading.

 

[klier]

Good! So when are we going to get some concrete info?? I'm a bit confused.

 

[SKY]

Hey guys, it´s 99% confirmed it´s the 918 Coupe with a V8 with 600 PS WITHOUT hybrid sistem.

 

[MeanAffe]

Hey SKYSONY, looks like some fantastic news.

It doesn't sound too credible though without a decent source.

Next Monday at the NAIAS.
