Front hood and rear spoiler also in carbon fiber. Why stop there, make the doors carbon fiber to...
I don't understand (yet) if the rear spoiler is fixed or not. That will make big difference in braking.
Just did the same calculation ! All we can say at present is a minimum of 700bhp which I think we all assumed anyway.
And presumably expensive if you have a parking shunt or scrape a rim ! Maybe not one to keep in London.
Wonder if I was right. "Highest power increase over donor car for a v8 special series" means > 7% gain, so at least 717hp.
Thanks so much Muratc for giving us a feast of facts to break the drought of this desert like thread. I still maintain this car is going to be something special and will prove a more complete and involving drive than the McLaren. This information is a good start and love CF rims except that means they have to be black holes-DC or anyone on the tdf thread will understand the issue...... Can anyone read what it says about the rear spoiler? Forget it, just read it, Load generating upwash spoiler so no LF type.
The 458 speciale was less powerful than the Macca 12C . Hasn't done it any harm. So may be who cares.
Great stuff. Can't wait to see what it looks like. That's what I'm most eager to see. So exciting!!!!
I bet that the power increase will be substantially higher than expected. My take is 730-750. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
Expensive, I am sure. More of a Leap than 458/Speciale Why do this two tier presentation if we don't see the car until tomorrow?
With all the talk about track sound,race car experience etc this gets me thinking about the possible new name? Could they name it after a driver?
Keep the faith. I can guarantee you it is going to be an epic drive unless they have decided to give up.
