Picked this up from another forum:

Subtle...not that they didn't expect pictures to be taken hooning around in a 7 car convoy.

Assuming the rear wing/panels are not mock ups I think I prefer the intercooler vents on the edge of the wing, somehow the 996TT versions always looked like a cheap addition ( no offence meant to Turbo owners )

why are there lots of little holes all around the rear light clusters? they seem to be part of the bodywork rather than any covering panel. or is the whole rear covered?

and why spoil such a famous bottom by putting a nasty little whip aeriel on the offside rear bumper?

I doubt that's a permament fixture - more to do with comms during the testing phase.

Those are attached as disguise over the real panels - look at the way the stop light is shining through the grille, or the taped seams...

Wonder if the guy in the 914 happened to be driving by and thought he'd wandered into a remake of 'Condorman'.....
