Box art. Face left.

Recommended Posts

Was just looking at the new Porsche and noticed it was facing right, all the box art I could remember faced left so had a nosey on main site and there are a few but very little.

 

I think it's trickery, the car is coming towards you running left, BUY ME. or running away facing right. CHASE ME. lol

Or do they look better that way?, easier to draw? Cultural possibilities?

Pfft. Everyone knows cars are faster in the southern hemisphere because everywhere is downhill. America has the race up Pikes Peak, we have the race down Baldwin st in Maori Overdrive. :rolleyes:

Cars face left so that they register a higher ground speed because they're going into the spin of the Earth.  That's why all speed tests are done to the left, not the right.

but if they were being speed checked from space, they'd be better going to the right....
