You can see that the LWB are heated and the steering wheel is now multifunctional.

Hopefully they put a more aggressive front splitter on it and a less aggressive rear diffuser. Neither looks very good in their current incarnation, but it is just a mule.

I heard they had some extra GTS bumpers, and they have to use them up somewhere and decided on the Spyder.
Just kidding... it's still wearing the GTS bumper and will hopefully gain the GT4 version soon.

Looks like it's taking a big dump.

They had them in Europe for awhile, never could get an answer on why not in the US.

I wouldn't take any of the content of the article too serious though... PCCB's standard??? Funny... especially since only one test car has been seen with PCCB's and all others (including the one in their article) have been steel.

Also date might be deliveries vs. launch... again all info is speculation. Nice to see new pics though.
Tach in the middle, speedo on the left.

My "cleaning lady" (somewhere in Atlanta) cautioned me today to not to be waiting on the edge of my seat for the Spyder as there are some fun final 911 integrations coming out first.

So...

The mysterious 991.2 Speedster!
That comes first... I expect that at Goodwood.
Then 992 at Paris?
Then Spyder/GT4 at Rennsport or LA

Anything distinctive about the interior of the turbo 718 vs the 981 that might be a tell as to the engine? Boost button, revs on the tach etc?

btw - what’s up with the raised vents - eek
