Not a fan of the LED backlights. Nice car though.

Wow.

Dynamic Engine Mount System? Modifies the stiffnes o the engine mounts.


3,4 s t o1000 km/h with PDK? Veyr very impressive!

0-200 km/h in 11,9 s with manual or 11,3 s with PDK. That is LP560-4 fast!

Greetings. Wow. This going to be one insane vehicle. I've been waiting for the PDK Porsche 997 Turbo... Now it's going to take back for the times beaten by the LP560 Gallardo.

Yes, with offocial 0-200 km/h times around 11 s and coonsidering how good the 911 S PDK goes Im sure it might be able to take on a LP560...

True, that is for sure. But it might be as fast as a LP560. But the new Ferrari is on another level I beleive too.
