I've been telling people this since I've been w/ Porsche; NO one is as good at keeping secrets are Porsche is in this industry.

They're almost military like with their secrets.

I would have to agree with that.

I was referring to the lack of a manual transmission.

Here's a video of Chris Harris (EVO) talking with Wolfgang Dürheimer (Porsche Research and development) about the 918 Spyder Concept at the Geneva show.

Video Part 1
Video Part 2

Most of the info we already know, but I found it interesting. Especially the bit when he explains the features of the steering wheel.

Hope it's not a repost.

Holy thread revival? Yes....

It is not , that's a popular misconception perpetrated mistakenly by the motoring press .
It is based on the engine from the lmp2 car , it's not the engine . They share very , very few parts .
