Look what I saw today..998 Turbo

The only 997 test mule I've seen in videos or pictures was a development video posted by Porsche. I loved how they put the stickers on the front to give it 996 lights.
Does anyone have some pictures of a 997 mule?

This was probably a Turbo car, the rear wing was camoed in the same way, and what was interesting is that it had led's on the front. This was a 997.1 mule.
They always get grumpy when you take pics, I remember years ago when the 997 and Caymen mules came past my house, they let me look if my phone was away. When I started asking questions, they said it was a BMW.
BTW thanks for the pics, interesting how they do the camo on these, the mules look kinda like the old ones.

A BMW, 
I actually think this is a Carrera, because it looks just like the one in the development video for the Carrera.

Also due to EU regulations, nowadays the mirror must be attached to the door. Kind of weird but it looks ok.
I'm also worried about the size. I'm sure as a car it will be fantastic in every way but I miss the go-cart feeling and aesthetics of the 993.
But most of all I wish they could bring the enginge sound back. Make it sound like the 996 C4S and it's a definite winner, all the 997 Carrera's are extremely dull sounding.

Yeah possibly. Would be nice if they kept the big scalloped intakes in the rear wings.
