All that is necessary for the triumph of opulent interiors is that real drivers do nothing. [sic]

car looks pretty much done. The only thing that doesn't look production are the end plates and the wheels.

How much extra HP can you extract if you mount the air intakes a la where the Turbo's are?

Beyond the fact I don't like the Turbo inlets except for the 959 and the 993!

Although I'm not down with the CLs, those wheels on that RS look bitchen.

Anx they are claiming 3.3 - 3.2 second 0 to 60. I expect it closer to sub 3 all day.

It'll be sub 3 for sure. The GT3 was already recorded at 3 dead by C&D.

The downforce numbers are the ones I expect to be eye opening.
