Are you ready for the latest racing car from Porsche? Bob Carlson, Porsche’s Manager of Automotive & Motorsport Press, together with Hartmut Kristen, Head of Porsche Motorsport, reveals the freshest new 2007 RS Spyder in Chicago Auto Show today.
Although the presentation wasn’t that impressive, Porsche was able to unleash the new 2007 RS Spyder which was fresh from the Rolex 24 at Daytona.
The new car promises to have an expertly handled airflow after its 2006 successful debut. Now, the new version of the sports endurance racer sports evenly refined bodywork. Kristen says, “The car is basically the same in all the areas you can’t see, and completely new in what you CAN see.” New Porsche parts are installed on the new car.
Kristen also mentioned that the secret of Porsche’s success in racing is because the cars are made accessible to the costumers. The racer cars can be used as street cars. And with that in mind, the P1 would be too much of a jump for most customers so Porsche will hold off for the foreseeable future.
After the release of RS Spyder, Porsche did not announced to unveil new model soon. However, its new Panamera is expected to account for as much as 40% of overall sales and the 911 was able to reclaimed Porsche’s sales crown last year.
