An upshift light on the dash??

Now that SUCKS.

It doesn't look like it's going to be wide bodied. Maybe the RS.

Looks good, like the competition package, notice how they go out of their way talking about 'track days', nice to hear.

TIA.

I searched the forums here and I couldnt find anything.

My guess is 135k for the base.

I severely doubt the base price will jump 36,000. (Rather, I hope)

Thanks for pointing that out Driveby.
I haven't been on Roadfly in a long time.
Almost looks like someone took pics with a spy camera!

I don't know about you guys, but I'm rather disappointed in its styling. Boxster like exhaust tips, WTF? Compared to the 996 GT3, this is FUGLY!

Following the heels of the 997 Turbo, thumbs down to this GT3 as well.
