^^ Like today? wouldn't it be odd if a car was revealed on nearly the last day of a show? I personally can't see this happening.

I could maybe see it happening on the last press day, but definitely not on the last public day ( which is today.)

Detuned GT3 4.0L engine. Final HP figures have yet to be set, 425-450hp is possible, all depends on where they set the redline.

Will also have the GT3's 6 speed manual.

Coupe and Spyder versions.

GT3 Manual? You mean it will come with a 6-speed manual....unless you plan to swap 180 deg the whole drivetrain.
If they do the 4L expect the same 6-speed we have now...nice way of keeping the lap times below the GT3.
Also.....the GT3 engine is dry-sump and would like to know how they plan to address the packaging on a smaller space.
Another area they may save some $$$ and keep performance down by reverting to a semi or wet sump system.
I really hope the 4.0L is the engine choice as I will definitely buy one....but there's still a 50/50 chance it can go either way.
We need more info or photos.......
