Hopefully the hood venting is a sign that the fender radiators are gone. Andy why are there intercooler vents on the rear fender? hmm...

It's the air intake for the engine.

It actually looks a bit less busy to me compared to the 997...





but again this is clearly mocked up and the final product will no doubt be sex-y.
Me likey. I'd give a nut and maybe an inch for one these babies funded for a year.

exactly! Is that the Elise GT car? And those are rad coolers/downforce improvers on the bonnet?

But I can see Grayce's point iess re 'busy'/more cohesive than the 997 RSR ...
but its more like both examples of intakes don't seem to quite work for the P
... but that's just my 2c (at 7,92 to the USD) ... and anyway
performance trumps looks espec. in a race car

I still wonder with the ducted hood why they FINALLY can't get the radiators out of the most damage prone part of the car...
