What I took away from the video:
-regular Carrera 3.8L engine with bolt on turbos
-dynamic engine mounts and torque "vectoring" so that the driver is further removed from the driving (or racing) experience
-same overall design - wait for 991 turbo for radical change
-performance sacrificed for efficiency
-center-lock wheels use 5 spoke hub adapter (?)
More stuff to fix $$$ when it breaks. Less driver control, more car control.

[quote=SVTHorsnake;2578790]I really like the new turbo, especially the interior changes and center lock hubs.[/quote
