You can see these spectacular "new" Boxster and Cayman models at your german dealer around the corner... How old are these pics? Is this really worth to mention?

not sure it's about the exclusivity of the shots more than incredibly 'public' world we live in. there was a statistic i read in the Economist recently that stated the average Londoner is caught on cctv 300 times per day. and the average american is subjected to an average of 100 adverts before they even get to work, this of course is dependent on the means by which one travels to work.

That's very true that the pictures have not been updated, but in fact they have not been updated in the past half a year. Google's "street view" only debuted in the past year, year and a half maximum.

these are the soon to be recent models. Thats the first generation Porshe cayman clearly. key features are the tail lights, head lights, and tailpipes.the same goes for the "current" 911 in this picture.
