The car is already in the hands of car reviewers and youtubers after the initial wave of traditional car magazines first impressions:

Announement seems imminent? 1-2 weeks maybe until first reviews from 3rd party reviewers, to keep the spotlight on the Mission S a bit more.

This also marks first uncamouflaged non-leaked picture of the car.

It’s a good looking front end. I like the vertical louvres from the 911 GTS

Confirms embargo lift date to end of November.

Would expect Porsche to keep at least 1-2 weeks of exclusivity on the discourse before the reviews, to keep the discourse about the car aligned for articles around the announcment.

That means the official announcemnet is mid to end of November.

Same as taycan, which taycan owners liked more than the newly flush j1.2 headlights. So I assume that's why they went back to the receded ones.
