if my country is any indication, the slots are 50% filled and deposits paid.

I do not disagree for the CGT!
I was referring to the Porsche 917 #23 winner of Le Mans in 1970... Good number for a Ltd Edition.

V8 sounds a little bit mid-supercar-esque and not hyperca-esque I think

Um 20 wasn't that fun. All your friends are out at the bar and you're stuck at home. 21 maybe but sure as shit not 20 haha.

As for the car, I just hope some of the other porsche models get styling cues from the 918.

20 was awesome, best year of my life. Had so much more fun at parties then I did at any bar.

4.6L V8 with 550 bhp sounds good, just ditch the stupid electric stuff and make the car 1,100 kg.

cgt will continue to be the rawest, but have faith in porsche, the 918 will amaze everybody.
but yes, it looks like its gonna be priced too close to a f70 though, i rather take the f70 too, but get a 918 used when it drops. nobody does hype like ferraris, so expect the f70 to be unobtainable now or later, but 918 on the other hand......
I am afraid I must disagree .
Even if Porsche could defy the laws of physics please remember the technology is what is available TODAY . The car is designed now .
You will never be able to do things in a heavy 4wd car that you can in a light 2wd car , its the whole concept thats flawed . There is no call for an economical, heavy , hybrid 4wd supercar . Why not use a kers type thing if you insist on using new tech ? why in the name of god use a full blown hybrid that can drive this car in eco mode ?
look how fast the battery in our mobile phones are improved , by the time the car is out they will already be obsolete .
