997 Test Car Pic...saw Today

This car had Porsche logo removed from the wheels, and no name on its rear.

2 antennas on the right rear and a ton of wires inside.
It was no wider than my 997....

Is this the C4S..red calipers and white dials with 4 tailpipes...Dealer plates also on it!

It was at Fashion Valley mall...I was following him and got my camera out of the glove box, pulled up next to him and shot photo...

He was def testing something with all the wires etc....

Those rims are not avail from the dealer and the crests were pulled off the center caps with marker writing on each wheel with arrows and numbers...

Several of the service techs at Pioneer Centres in San Diego got 997 loaners last week for the next two months. They had test equipment wired up in them too. One of the guys with an "S" said it had way more power than a normal "S".
