The huge LCD dash is a big usability improvement, bordering on OTT. As if you could play Spotify or launch Netflix while sitting on the grid.

For those who have taken off the engine cover, the engine appears to sit lower than the 991.2--I'll leave that for someone with the technical data to verify.

The car is running 1-1.3 seconds faster lap over 991.2.

Press release suggests that ABS and TC can be enabled in software without adding any parts. True? Permitted in the US series? (I don't expect in to be in GB.)
