That's not Chris Harris driving in the second video -- way too timid and they spoke French in the car.

Yes, but way too much sliding to be even close to fastest lap times.

Indeed, this is the Maison Blanche circuit in Le Mans, used by the Porsche Experience Center Le Mans.
I suppose this is also a test car used by the same PEC.

They are three circuits for cars in Le Mans:
- Circuit de la Sarthe, used only the 24 Hours and Le Mans Classic
- Circuit Bugatti
- Circuit Maison blanche

Very pricey front hood should you need a replacement. List price $14,900.

Ouch. Hefty.

Though, approx. 5x cheaper than the list price of the CF hood on my SLS Black Series.

A $60K hood? I know it's long but that's quite shocking.

Indeed. I think they artificially set the list price high to deter people from making their own Black Series wannabes. Then they ended up using a similar design for the SLS Final Editions (though they were naked carbon).

Still, getting a replacement won't be cheap. My detailer was pretty sacred while doing correction work on the hood (which was horrid compared to the rest of the car, likely because the factory didn't polish it as much, out of fear).

Agreed. Great color, but it needs the FedEx interior IMO.
