I think this covers Porsche pretty well without being a blatant ripoff of a 911. What do you think?

Tavarish article idea: You can buy this Porsche Cayman for the price of a fully loaded Porsche Lawnmower!

Haha. Also it will be the most reliable cayman you will EVER own with one simple $3 fix.

And double the price for them to put a sticker on the side and take away all the options...

Do you actually have to design a product, or just do a drawing?

If the former, then you have to consider the materials Porsche Design already use. As an established brand this lawnmower will have to fit in seamlessly to their portfolio: so stainless steel/gunmetal, brushed aluminium, gloss black, (subtle) white LED's, orange hints. Their product design is very inorganic, industrial and quite mechanical. As a product concept you've got a good start, but I think you should tear away from such a 'rounded' product. If the body was built out of GRP and painted as is, it would look very cheap. Lawnmowers have all got steel or alloy decks, which is perfect to expose and toy with because it fits Porsche's design language.

Of course if this is just a drawing exercise then forget all that and just go wild!

This is actually my MidTerm for my Concept drawing class. And that drawing is not the final one, I have to do 2 more views and it has to be on 11x17 Graphics 360 marker paper.
