I was hoping the factory car would have the air vents in front of the front wheels in the bumper. Like in the patent drawings

It probably will, as almost all of the P1 XP prototypes have been seen running around with the air vents present. Design Director Frank Stephenson also confirmed that they'll be present on the production P1.

The sneaky folks faded it out just before it got to 100Km/h though, so can't time that... But at least we know 1st gear will get it to around 84Km/h. And judging by my iPhone's timer, that was 0-84Km/h in 1.7 seconds.... Which means we're potentially looking at a low 2 second or 2 second flat 0-100Km/h time..
25 FPS
Frame 761 - 0 mph
Frame 789 - 61 km/h
Frame 808 - 84 km/h
0-61 km/h - 28 frames = 1,12 s
0-84 km/h - 47 frames = 1,88 s

I'm a little disappointed that the display unit is so simple. If you compare that to say the LF-A and the Aventador it's quite boring and outdated.

Nothing moves there.
I should start keeping track. 
It's great to be enthusiastic, but don't let your enthusiasm lead you down the wrong paths.

- I got an average of 2.1 seconds 0-84Km/h.I think your calculations look more accurate though.

Regarding the gears ..
I know for a FACT there is an Automatic gearbox in the P1
Notice that the video starts at " Nm " my guesses .. gear is at Neutral in Manual mode.
The lights indicate most probably the rev limiter.
Notice this ..
Neutral
First Gear
Maximum Speed achieved is 61km but actually 67km but could catch it on my print screen
When the number changes from 1 to 2 in which i feel are the gears, the speed drops to 57km
Number changed from 2 to 3, in which i feel are the gears at 75km
Right before everything becomes blurry, the 4th gear shows up and the speed is at 84km
