PH exclusive: spy shots of new Porsche?
Is this a new Carrera 4S?
Spy shots of what some sources suggest is the new, and as yet unlaunched Porsche Carrera 4S (997) with aerokit have reached PistonHeads. They were taken during car's last street tests with the new Aerokit.
The design of the Aerokit appears very similar to the look of the GT3. The Prototype also shows the Porsche Sports exhaust system, which will -- allegedly -- only be available for the Carrera S and 4S.
Sources say that the 355bhp Porsche Carrera 4S will cost £69,000 compared to the rear-wheel drive Carrera S price of £65,000. The Aerokit will cost an additional £3,000, and both will be unveiled at the Frankfurt show, which starts on 17 September 2005.
Who says it is a C4S ??? No author on the article, people i know who are supposed to have a clue at pork Hq don't know about a 4 even when spoken to off the record..
While we are speculating I think this one actually has the Cayenne 4wd system and V8 Turbo in the back
it looks slightly odd as the bottom lip is colour coded rather than black but other than that they are the same unit.
I gues they think it is a C4s because of the high spec ie rear park assist etc...but Porsche are good at desguising mules
As to wether it is a C4s or a GT3 who knows? but as AFN have 15 deposits for a GT3 my guess that is what it is(I take darens point re wash wipe but it looks in US spec anyway do they have a wiper?)
UK GT3 is expected next spring
