The problem with successors is that they will never be as iconic as their predecessors. We saw that with the Ford GT40 and Ford GT and the Mercedes-Benz 300SL and SLS AMG. We will see the same with the Porsche Carrera GT and 918 Spyder. That's not because the 918 Spyder isn't a great car, it's because of the genius of the Carrera GT.
Let's take a closer look at the following copy that has been spotted in Karlsruhe, Germany. The car looks great in black and that's quite a rare colour. The car is parked with the spoiler still up because when you're driving around with the Carrera GT you should put the spoiler up. It makes the car looks just a bit more sporty although it already is a very sporty car. The wide hips, as we can see on photos even, are very iconic. The lines are smooth which means that it's a classic beauty. Actually we don't have enough words to describe this car, we think it's better to just take a closer look at the photos of this spot. You will immediately understand why the Porsche 918 Spyder won't be as iconic as this beautiful Porsche Carrera GT.
