Pinky Lai (Hong Kong, born 20 March 1951) is an automotive designer, currently working at [[Porsche AG]]. He is responsible for the exterior designs of both [[Porsche Boxster]] and [[Porsche Cayman|Cayman]]. He is also the designer of the original Boxster and [[Porsche 911|911]] ([[Porsche 996|996 series]]).

In 1972 he moved to Rome, where he later recieved a BA in Industrial Design. After answering an advertisement from Ford of Germany for a car designer, in 1978, he ended up receiving a two year scholarship on transportation design at Royal College of Art in London.

After his graduation in 1980, he went in a joint venture project to work in [[Ghia]] Studios (in Italy) and [[Mazda]] (in Japan), where he worked in the [[Ford Sierra|Sierra]], [[Ford Fiesta|Fiesta]], [[Ford Escort|Escort]] and [[Ford Scorpio|Scorpio]] projects.

After returning to Germany (he joined [[BMW]] in 1984 as a senior designer), he was invited by the president of R&D of Porsche AG to join the design team (Porsche Styling) under the lead of [[Harm Lagaay]] (also from BMW). Since then, he worked in all the models from the factory, from the [[Porsche Boxster|Boxster]] to the [[Porsche Cayman|Cayman]], and including the revolutionary [[Porsche 996|996]], the first departure from the original [[Butzi Porsche]] design in four decades.
