    Very nice Ron -- Thank you!!

    Nice pics ... now I know what I'm missing.

    Well, I can see a little weight that they can remove already. What's that silly little strip running down between the two rocker covers?

    Not sure I like the all metal peddles. The shifter isn't the only thing I would change.

    Also, am I right that the show car has a different exhaust manifold than does the cut-away engine? If not, then what is the grey part that looks like an exhaust manifold?

    I do get the feeling that this car is more about show than go. Guess I would have liked a more subdued styling with less flash. But the lines themselves are beautiful!

    The cutaway engine in that photo is a Cayenne engine (while all the other photos in the set are of the CGT). There is a Cutaway CGT engine on the Geneva stand as well, but unfortunately I didn't seem to get that photo -- I'm sure it will turn up on the web soon.

    I agree about that silly little strip of carbon fiber fluff but I believe those are intake plenums and not rocker covers (maybe it would just be "valve covers" anyway since I think the cam is acting directly over the valve stem).

    I like the shifter myself.

    Wait! ... I take that back!

    I saw a better photo of that shifter (LASERIC) and I agree, it's goofy looking .

    Gauges ?

    I thought the gauges were supposed to be in TFT. They look like the ones in the 911.

    Re: Gauges ?

    They were in the concept car, and you're right, they look like the 911 and Boxster on the production car, shame...
    Fanch.
