Yes. Very nicley but perhaps not absolutely stealthily. You can definitely hear that thing!

Picked up my 981 GT4 just before Christmas after selling my Cayman R, finally got a break in the weather for a spirited drive tagging along a GT3!

Yea, it is a bit of a thug from a noise perspective.

Brutiful!

Waited behind one of those on the launch control strip at PEC Silverstone a few months back. The way they light up the rear tyres and the noise is epic.

Definitely not Uttoxeter.

From low camera angles, the raised wing looks utterly mental.

Yes - some angles it looks great, others a bit challenging, but overall the improved rear visibility is amazing. I couldn't tell you if there is more downforce smile

I’m pretty sure the theory is that raising the wing moves it further from the turbulent air and make it more effective.

993rs will be along soon to say less downforce = more fun.
