Touring package more likely.

Porsche, don't play with my heart. It is so easily broken.

No CF frunk or Mg roof, so not quite an R...but it is the second time this week Porsche has shown us an undisguised prototype of a wing-less GT3. Sure looks like another model is coming, and sooner than later...

Engine cover looks like a standard .2 and I agree there does not appear to be any roof or hood indentations. Interesting to see how this plays out.

No creases in the frunk lid or roof like the 991.1 R and RS have.

Not R replacement as previous RLer stated. No bubble roof or frunk. It's the touring package. R will not be replaced. It was short run of cars that will not be done again.
