I guess they are some prototypes for 991.2. But why would they choose Beverly Hills as the location for "leaking"?

New steering wheel seems to be the same as the VW Golf GTI.

tres cool...but thats definitely the last place to go to avoid attention. they're obviously trying to pique it. esp with PSE turned on. the exhaust layout for the targa was definitely interesting...targa gts?

The Germans LOVE going to Beverly Hills. I used to work for BMW and Mercedes. They tell their wives they are going to the "laboratory" and then drive BH, Death Valley and any other tourist spot. They love the attention. I'd bet money they go back to their hotel rooms and try to find themselves on TMZ.

Initial URL does not work directly for me, this does. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IL3t...ature=youtu.be


Here's a snip from it showing the 918 style steering wheel in the testbed Boxster.

Yup, the next mark for each model will have the optional 918 styled wheel that is offered in the Macan.

What is the reason that so much attention is being focused on that steering wheel? There must be some aspect that is better and I can not see it in the pictures.
