This is because of the camera. The difference really isn't that big. For example, look at pictures from this thread. https://g87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=2020812
Notice how big the 1M is next to the G87? It's an optical illusion based on camera angles.

Well, I saw it in real life and had nothing to do with cameras. But point taken. The height of the 911 is about 7" higher than the GT and 2" wider.

We went to Summit last Saturday and they happened to be having a Ford car show when we arrived. I didn't take many pics but did get this Maverick because my wife loves green and my dad used to have one in Cuba. He said they used to drag race on the air strip.

Spied a new Brabus G63 6x6 at a hotel on my commute home a little while ago. Had to stop for a closer look, crazy to see in the wild.

How long til someone wrecks one of these? Can’t imagine the repair cost and wait time, not to mention the damage. Wonder if the insurance is 3-4k/year…. Must be pretty high
