These pictures show a model even more road ready than the last time teasers were drip-fed in June. It now appears to have finalized bodywork, including front and rear bumpers, a lip spoiler, and possibly a rear diffuser. About the only thing covered up is the lighting. Previous spy shots suggest the light clusters to be LED strips at the back, and triangular shaped in front.
The car is rumored to feature a 4.8-litre V10 engine that produces upwards of 600 horsepower. Weight will probably be kept low, with use of carbonfibre throughout the interior and parts of the exterior. The car appears to be using alloy wheels with five double-spokes.
