A better article on this. Gizmodo wrote about this issue more than 12 hours ago with much better details, including two ways owners can deal with it since most cars with the issue are out of warranty and this will cost at least $1800.

This. The 7 spoke wheels really give it away too.
... there are 7 spokes
As others have said, it’s a Maxima, a lot like this image, but darker.
‘04-’08 Maxima. Inset trunk, slightly buttressed rear window, 7 spoke wheels, headlights shaped to the front wheel arch, no chrome strip over the tag
A quick check of “2020 911 weight” produced:
The James Dean Porsche was really light. It also turned into aluminum foil shreds when it T-boned Mr Turnipseed’s Ford Tudor. You don’t get superlight along with super stiff, AC, airbags all over the place, crash safety, and really good ride and NVH.
This take is the same as the guy I work with and his mountain bike. Every week he claims to have replaced something on his bike that saved grams of weight, all while he gains pounds! So the car weighs 2900 LBS and 2 300 lb Americans pile into it who cares what a car weighs?
Because the GT4 will cost $20-30k more in the real world (very few will option a base corvette anywhere near this test vehicle, and the BASE gt4 will be $100k), has almost 100hp less, and you can’t actually buy one without a super secret allocation handshake. We don’t know performance numbers on the upcoming GT4, but…
90k? Do they have a C8 model that starts around there yet?
Because you only have to spend 60k to get a C8?
I guess GM has a long memory, after Patrick’s Camaro incident.
The only thing CNET is crashing is computers. Jalopnik on the other hand...
Good ole Harley, missing the mark by overpricing and under delivering.
This review was much better than the linked video.
If you haven’t owned one, I know you won’t understand, but these cars are in a category that really only belongs to... well, people who love cars.
Really bigly huge things!
Fantastic things!
TERRIFIC things. HUGE things.
