Here’s an interesting spy shot of what is probably a new Porsche 911 Turbo prototype. With its beautiful, albeit overpriced, 911 Sport Classic Porsche has shown it’s willing to draw on the company’s iconic styling cues. So, then, are we going to see a proper return of a “whale tail” with the new 991 Turbo?
It’s a bit hard to tell from the above pic, but that is clearly one serious bit of camouflage being used there. We’ve seen them before, but the side inlet stickers are quite cute, too.

No that is not a turbo. That is the regular model. And the “whaletail” you see in the pic just simulates the raised spoiler of a 911. Nothing to do with a turbo model or whale tail here. Porsche have used this spoiler in prototype 911s for test for years.
I saw that there was 1 comment on this post, and I knew intuitively that it would be way correcting things !!
Jutta told me the whale tail will appear on the new beetle.
