Maybe it's just a factory Aero kit piece (pic doesn't show the correct ram air engine lid)

I really dont get what is all the bitching and whining about. John thanks so much for all the info and links.
This looks to be an awesome car and a great fun track car. Technology moves forward even though we some times LIKE to stick to our old ways.
I wish I could afford this one, PDK or not a 9K rpm flat 6 whaling in the back will be something to feel/experience and if it would afford me ,with my 2 left feet, to focus on becoming a better driver on the track, be able to better throttle balance, brake smoother and deeper, then so be it. I'll take it!
And i will still be driving my pseudo RS 993 with its manual gearbox on a twisty road.
When is the last time an F1 or any other serious formula or sports race car ( not Nascar) used an H pattern gearbox?

I have no idea what car/which thread you mean, but I assure you, this is no hearsay, son. I was there. I have driven this car many times. I know its owner & his maintenance schedule VERY well.
Just because you and Peter haven't heard of it doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Crickets in response to my request for details in that thread.
The owner's reputation or his supposed maintenance schedule is not material, pics and details are the facts worth knowing
Had I not spent many years living in the south, I would have otherwise taken "son" to be derogatory. But I know you meant it as a term of endearment

It's the engine that really interests me.
911Slow,
does our brilliant RL source have anymore details, or are we now just waiting for Geneva?
Thanks!

Cant wait to at least see the bottom of the engine, I wonder what the RS flat 8 redline will be. Must be some noise at 9000RPM.

I believe you that it happened, but why and what happened? Just because he had a good maint schedule does not mean he cant have a brain fart and forget to lock a wheel.
Ordered a 991GT3 sonnyboy? Sorry, I mean Savyboy..

I have seen you changing wheels, it takes forever.
Do you want to challenge me on who can change wheels faster, torqued to specs?
My Cayman 5 lugs vs. your Aero Beetle, loser pays for drinks. All four corners.
My tools: 1 Floor Jack, a 1/2" torque wrench, a 1/2" Cordless Impact Wrench, (2) 19mm sockets, a pair of gloves, and my iPhone StopWatch.
Even better, I bet two 4-wheel changes against you single set attempt, 2 bar tabs. No help from anyone, no prep work either.
Are you in?
