It’s like a baby 911 when it doesn’t have to be. The Boxster looked different enough from the 911. Plus, just to go on another tangent, the 924-944 looked different to a 928 until the 968.

Why blend the styling when both Cayman and 911 had their own style?

I can't think of a more pointless vehicle than an electric Boxster / Cayman. To be fair, I lost interest when they dropped the flat 6.

Is it just me or is the rear window and the area between the C-pillars really wide? It's so fat, like they really are trying to make it look like a 911 @05XR8. It makes the car look heavier and less athletic which is a problem the 911's styling has struggled with.

My favorite thing about the 987's design is how svelt the rear half was compared to the 911. It looks lean and not as rear-heavy. It's not as traditionally coupe-like as the later 981 generation which is when the Cayman started to look more like a 911. The hips dove down deeper, the rear window area seemed skinnier, the whole thing seemed a little leaner.

I don't like it. This new thing does not have mid-engined identity.

The early models are well sculpted indeed. I mean, did rear collision testing force the new design? If not, the Boxster-Cayman had true identity. The car in the new pics is very butch.

I miss the frog at rest stance of the 911 and shapely hips of the Boxster.

For me the Cayman has always had kind of compromised looks. This one is slightly better than the 981/718, but not much.
