They are Spyder wheels. The spokes look thinner than the 987.2 wheels though.

Everybody seems to be expecting the TT 4s across the board in the 987.2s. It would not surprise me to see small F6 TTs in the upper models

I'm assuming you mean 981.2.
Yeah I've read that they're planning on keeping F6 for GT/upper models as well but we'll have to wait and see

Yeah... The chrome badge bothers me too. Hopefully it is easily removable and can be painted Black.

Hope so too. If a PDK version is released I'm getting one and I'm hoping these are just two-way tape.

Did you decide on a color?

It does look good in yellow, which complicates the decision.
It seems like the first drive/ reviews are overdue but I'm impatient. heck, I'd settle for any new news on it.

With product release scheduled for Oct. review should come out maybe 2-3 months in advance, right?

Just sold my Spyder and in line for the new one…but it's gonna be awhile…993 is going to get some miles this year.

Well the gt4 was much quicker to be reviewed. Announced early February, officially released in Geneva early March, first drive shortly (mid March) after. I'd assume since they're taking orders in the next month (?) that they would want PR now.
also - isn't it coming earlier in Europe?

Isn't it out, there seems to be a few running around Germany or are these testers?
