I would have thought maybe the center console would gain haptic buttons like the new Macan or Panamera.

All these tech improvements but no signs of heads-up display

I think the all digital display looks great and it’s definitely scrunched so it should be easier to read the dials on the left and right. While a physical tach is good, the one in my 2021 has a thick bezel and too much wasted dead space… which further exacerbates the outer dials being blocked by the steering wheel An all digital dash allows greater ability to have different views for different driving situations.

looks like a check engine light to me (edit: nope, that seems to be showing on the ‘dial’ to the right of the tach).

Does anyone think the front grill “active aero” vent are false? They appear to be attached to the camouflage pieces. I have looked at a few different spy shots and they are always “open” and some have not been in alignment with the adjoining slats. Do you think grills will be mesh.

Also it appears the rear bumper has similar profile to the GT3.

Any thoughts?

Given the way software is today, they might even offer pre-set customs, like SpongeBob, that you pay $2 for.

New tach gives me Audi vibes….analog tach + digital tach is the best combo since eggs and bacon Porsche engineers! I’m sure Porsche will charge $500 to change the digital tach to a guards red background.

I, too, am a fan of the physical analog tachometer with the digital displays on either side. It’s a modern-retro mix that works. I’m not opposed to the fully digital screens, but I like the current setup better.

And will the 992.2 really have a redline sub-7k like in those photos?

Could be a variable redline? Lower redline until the engine fully warms up. Easy to do since it’s now digital.

A lot of recent speculation of a 992.2 this week or next. Configurator updating today with MY2023 pricing and no other changes to speak of ends that idea.

My initial thought but the other dials suggest it's up to temp.
