I agree with all of the Ferrari comments... But it is still noticeably different. The steering wheel looks like a Playstation console controller (I like it that way), and the styling is just amazing...
All of that performance AND AWD???? I want.

Perhaps some of the spy pics we saw recently were actually from this model, not the 987 spyder... After all, how do they know the ring lap time? There was a recent set of spy pics at the rim of a convertible porsche with humps in the back.
About the Stig, I read an interesting piece that he is actually several different pilots (at least 3), besides his cousins throughout the world (personal favorite- the American cousin)...

Had not seen it yet- thx for posting.
Looks like Porsche is still on top of their game. Beautiful car! Interesting to see if they race it and how they will rate the HP.
After 40 miles does the hybrid help or just add weight?

I hope this provides relief for those folks who were afraid that Porsche has been resting on it's laurels. Every time someone says that Porsche is up against the ropes they seem to come out with a knock-out punch. Looks like Walter Rohl is sitting in it in the pictures. I guess he is set to run it 'round the 'ring.
