I expect to get one to add to my existing ones, but it will be wildly impractical...no frunk, fixed LWBs, so limited access for luggage. I normally do a factory pickup and do a couple of weeks touring and track days pretty much right away. Evidently this is likely to be a solo event. Still. should be an interesting car.

Ok is it only me but does the wing just look really stupid. Too high for bacon sarnies on a track day…

Apparently the DRS function also doubles as a panini maker.

We should expect to see it a Goodwood I understand.

I agree however It'll look fantastic on track. Flippers don't give two hoots what it looks like or drives like, just how much profit on SOR.

It may look ok on the track if you trailer it out of sightsmile cup will look better on track.

I tend to disagree with this taffy, my view will be this car will be a very dedicated track tool which most, if not all buyers, will be solely track nuts.

As a current 992 GT3 owner (Yes i still own the car) the everyday usability for me, is compromised, which i have be transparent in regards to.

Yeah your get the odd few which will skip the net sure, but i really think from what i been advised this will be more hardcore than a 2RS all-day-long.


Cant fricking wait!!

I suspect that very few people if any would have this as their only car. Agree it is mainly for track- not likely to even fit luggage for two people for a weekend. I generally do factory delivery and do a few weeks combined road and track time.

The track time is obvious but the lack of space with nothing in front is not great.

Should be a small Frunk area to store at least a Lid or a pack of Rebull for circuit use obviously!

My wife wouldn’t be seen dead in it, nor would her luggage fit for a weekend away. The seats will hurt her back and it will be too noisy and too firm a ride for her.

I really hope I get one.

Wonder how much Bhp it will have, i note that in some Spy Shots its on 275 fronts and 335 rears, thats some rubber...
550 would be my guess....any less would a damp squib of a PR release.
