There is sooooo much to like about that! The neatness of the body kit (particularly the cut outs on the rear apron), the central exhausts, the alu design of the sports seats and the simplicity of the doors and console on the inside. Bloomin' marvellous. Only the sat nav screen jarrs in such a car. I'm sure it'll make the Turbo look a bit flabby and tarty.

This may well be the incentive I need to sell the trouble and strife to a rich Arab and get myself down to an OPC. What's the wonga for one of these and when is it over here?

As I understand it, £75k+, with deliveries starting from late summer.

Lot's more will be revealed in a couple of weeks when it is officially launched.

Very nice. Not sure white does the bodykit any favours. It all looks a bit fussy round the front....a bit like the bonnet's too short...

 

[jamescharnley]

I like that a lot []

It looks good in white too. As a 'fantasy shopper' I would have trouble deciding on white or orange []

 

[oliver]

White can be very photogenic, and it does highlight the detailing, which I agree looks a bit fussy in places. Front bonnet/bumper will be similar to 996 GT2 I guess.

Centre exhaust is interesting.

Is this just for hardcore use only or can you spec sat nav etc ?

Apparently you'll be able to even spec it with sunroof and the like.

Anyway, some more pics...

Lots of good stuff on here (and wheels look like the current GT3 ones).

I definitely definitely want one, but I need the rear seats! I have a baby on the way, and must have something in the back []
