Default Where the 992.2 Vertical Slats Came From
Figured out where the vertical slats on the 992.2 came from. These were developed 3 years ago in the Mission R technology demonstrator. We all should have known!



Zoomed in…

Something tells me the turbo will have the fins but similar front valence with this mission R, maybe more tastefully done than the GTS. I like the front wings concealing them.

Nice catch! It is fun to find these easter eggs. Another example: The much-hated gear selector in the 992 can be traced to the 918 Spyder.

Is there a way to make the steering feel tighter?
