Does anyone understand Porsche's long-term plans for this car? I.e. is there going to be a street-version of this? And if so, is it supposed to be the Carrera GT replacement, or an eventual 911 replacement?

Street version would be the 918 Spyder that I also shot the video for:

The coupe really reminds me of the 904, especially at the back of the top/rear window/'B' pillar. I'm sure that was no accident.
