1-There is no magnesium roof on the .2 GT3.
2-Also, several of the recent reviews have stated that the .2 GT3 lacks a SMFW, in comparison to the .1 GT3, when in reality the .1 GT3 was PDK only, so it never had a SMFW, either.

alex goy is quite entertaining, his joy driving that car is palpable
but there is little new info value in the piece, and the new car is really just a minor refinement of the .1 (new black accents are 'meh' imho)... of course, if its engine proves more reliable and the stick can be had, these do make the new one worthwhile
will be interesting when one of these 'journalists' does a head on head .1 vs .2 car...
i also wonder if they put the better paddle toggles from the rs into the new .2 pdk car...

I find it a bit surprising that the first GT3 videos come from Carfection and Autocar! I was expecting Chris Harris and Drivetribe. I suppose they're waiting for the manual. Even the journos from Carfection,Autocar and Pistonheads were " complaining " about not being able to drive their favorite : the manual.
I think it's a really poor idea from Porsche to not let them test both version...I really don't get it!

They get twice the publicity this way. Everyone is hyped to see the new car review and a few months from now everyone will be excited to see the manual reviewed. Porsche is the king of marketing.
