* double wishbone front suspension from the cup car
* spring rates increased 25-30%
* front wheels 9.5x 20 12 x 21 in rear with 255 and 315 but should fit 265 and 325 (my opinion)
* 408mm front brakes and 380mm rear
* there will be a Clubsport package
* transmissions and gearing stays same
* PDK available in touring
* launch color is Shark blue
You're the man for posting that @Norge911 . Some more good info. I found the suspension stuff most interesting.
"Their (double wishbone) fitment dictated a new approach with the steering which needed complete recalibration. The dampers, now unburdened with braking forces being transferred through them are now significantly lighter".
I didn't realize this was one of the benefits of the double wishbone setup. I'm also happy to hear that with the 25-30% stiffer springs, the car does not ride more harshly.
