Wow, Porsche is REALLY moving technology along. Who knew that having AWD created HP? Here I always thought it was the engine, turbos, intercoolers.......

Oh, and Matt, I know your quote is just a cut and paste. No flame on you bud.

And back on point, yeah, 911 TT's NEED a spoiler. It's part of the icon.

Haha! thanks mate, yeah when I read it I was like .... What?!? LOL
Most likely they meant thats 600 hp is how much is produced given that it's an awd ..

It's gotta be true. The car is two and a half years out but I saw it on the internet!

....and these pics were posted here a week ago. I don't believe any of it until the disguise is off. Could be standard lift spoiler ala 997, side vents could be real fenders, but on a non turbo mule. Who knows?

Give it time, give it time.

Im pretty sure they are testing the F6.tt in a wingless widebody carrera. I doubt they'll make due without the tail on the turbos...

Don't worry guise - they will launch the Special Wing Edition two months later.

Matt, no reason for the link out with others pics as we had this here first...so your OP has been edited.

They are not going to "ditch" the rear wing. This is just a test mule prototype.
