Certainly sounds good, not convinced about looks. Or price!

Wondering whether it'll have the engine in front of the transmission.

As far as I can make out it's just a GT2RS with a bodykit & some track preparation. And a €700k pricetag!

That just looks fabulous!

Hopefully... one of these very skilled modders will build it, so I can take it for a spin around Feldbergring. Nothing would please me more.

There is apparently some possibility that this might end up as Porsche's effort for the new SRO GT2 category - I think they might be pre-stacking the deck a bit though.

In case you don't know what the formula is - Ratel ( of SRO ) wants to introduce a new class of basically overpowered GT4 cars; so limited aero/modifications, much more power, cost less than GT3 which is starting to get a bit expensive, and for some reason driven by amateurs. The intention is they'd be slower than GT3, just to add a little more confusion.

The pricetag of this thing is already banging on the levels of a GTE car so I can't see how this "935" fits in, but well... ( it wouldn't be the first time Porsche broke a formula ).

It genuinely looks 40 years old, in a good way. Never seen that before in a new sports car.
