That would be sweet. Haven't heard any rumors about that yet...

Nah... it's 600hp now. They changed the exhaust, wheels, steering wheel, and front grill.

I believe the new sales pitch states 'lower driving position' or something similar. That may mean just lower seats and the same old 4 x 4 standard ride height. Certainly looks like it.

Nice!

I saw it yesterday when it's being dropped off by the truck...

Just wondering, do you have any used Flying Spur??

Speed By Truck

The vehicle was trucked in from Auburn Hills. This model is not to be released to the American public until next month.
It has been lowered about an inch from the BGT. It would seem that the engineers involved in the Speed Project would have sufficient technical data for support of their decision on the correct height for optimum performance [especially at very high speed].

I a friend of mine that lives on Lombard saw a couple of these and a couple Flying Spurs in his driveway a few months ago. He was so excited, he sent me a text message with pix (although I can't locate them now.) Not sure what they were doing, but I think they were also factory cars with British gentlemen driving them.

Meh. The B-CGT's days are numbered, they're a dime a dozen in SoCal. Nothing special or particularly nice about it.

The reason it sits high is because the suspension setting is on the raised height selection. Just turn the **** and it will be all better.
