wow look at how low the engine looks under the bonnet at the end of the video!

Bonnet looks quite beefy..... i can see where a lot of weight can be shed from this car straight away

damn look how low that engine sits,

you can fit a stupidly large and thick strut bar across the engine bay and still have room for nooky.

and in picture 2, it looks like those fender vents might vent air pressure from the engine rather than the wheel well as previously thought. Does this mean functional fender vents? Not sure, but things are looking up.

Wow, that is low! That strut tower brace looks like a good 6" from the top of the fender.

At the beginning, when its in the garage, does it look to anyone else that the boot is open (hard to see though, so I'm not sure) doesn't look like a hatchback to me...

Nice find, thanks.
Looks a bit bigger than the TT it was racing next to, which is what I was hoping for.

You can see the wing in front of people walking around in the back, so it's not open (or the people would be blocked by the trunk, not the wing).

And it's not a hatchback.
