What Model?
The one on the right. I'm not a member of a 911/912 group so I can't ask this question of them, but this car seems a bit odd to me. The wheels are not Porsche. The headlamps seem to be a combo of old and new. And, the hood badge seems a bit off. And instructional comments?

Re: What Model?
It has SWB fenders, and I don't see a steering wheel on the left side, so that and the wiper location would suggest a 65-67 RHD car.
I can't enlarge the picture for various details, but the turn signal light seems odd, with a chrome divider separating the clear from the amber? As does the horn grille.
Is it a real Porsche, or a replica?
Regarding AI, all the appropriate reflections seem to be there, except perhaps hers on the hubcap, but it seems odd that there's no shadow beneath her.

Re: What Model?
I just think that the chrome alloy wheels with standard hubcaps, the headlights, and the emblem all are surely AI as they aren’t quite real. Also look at the horn grill, it doesn’t quite reach the hood and it’s deformed. Every month AI improves.

Re: What Model?
AI for sure. Horn grilles all wrong, spoiler with truncated fog lights and openings, wheels wrong, no headlight adjust screws and rear fender upper line too low.

Re: What Model?
I can't be certain, but shouldn't there be a hint of reflection in the adjacent windows? The young lady looks well proportioned to me though. The other thing I don't understand is why Martin is picking on Zim........
Some days it's just not worth chewing through the restraints.....

Sorry to disappoint you Wes, I’ve reformed. I probably played that game with my friend Al long enough to be annoying.

She's definitely an android. Vacant stare. Stepford wife?

Re: What Model?
