The pictures of the Black test car look to have similar locking points for the roof wings, on the speed humps, as our Boxster Spyders.....
So may be the same type of manual Convertible set up ??

Fixation point for a soft top "à la Boxter Spyder 981", certainly.

Humps and the windscreen is lower than a cabriolet and it will probably have the GT3RS tune on the engine.
