Carbuzz.com is also touting a mid July announcement.

Releases usually occur in europe, asia and Saudi Arabia first so we may not see the car on US shores until spring. Then it can sit at the VPC for 7 months before being released to the dealers. (Ask me how I know)

Regards

I truly hope they are purposefully masking the exhaust note.

But appreciate the reference. That car was charging hard. Would’ve loved to have seen if it caught the black.

Get used to quiet exhaust systems. Mechanics say the new BS will be quieter than the first series of regular GTRs. Because of the new CO2 standards, "thunder" will have to be reduced.

Can we just agree that they are hiding a GT3 under that wrap and stuffing 4 cats inline to quiet it down? it looks like its on rails...

They must have got the balance right as that's the best video I've seen at speed where they are putting down the power. Ring time prediction anyone?

I thought it would have been faster around the Ring. I don't know how much faster...maybe just hopeful it was sub 6:50.

I am curious if adding the Black Series wing to the GTR Pro would be beneficial without changing the front arrow.

So, unnoticeably quicker than the GTR, and slower around the ring than a GT3 RS? That's very disappointing.

This is all speculation based on rumors. There is a bit of truth, but you should not completely trust. It also says about 6:58 min. Or they took the information from here.

We’ll find out the truth in a week.

I was thinking the same. Go slightly larger turbos and you are past it providing you get the power to the ground.

No performante sold to the public has ever been capable of that time.

But looks beautiful doing it. Personally prefer the looks of BS over any of the porches. Same goes for the GTR and Pro.

Eye of the beholder though - of course.
