Close-ups of Carrera GTs in Death Valley

Hey guys,
Just ran across this link from a friend, and since I don't remember seeing these pictures on here, I thought I would post.

Extreme weather testing, anyone? I seem to remember some Carrera GT pictures from the north pole before, eh?

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul!

I don't know about these things... they look like MR2s with crap hanging off the back end. I hope they look better in person.

Believe it or not but the Carrera GT also underwent high temp testing here in South Africa - up near the Namibian border.

I tried hard to get near it, but Porsche here denied it was in the country and only when it was crated ready to go back did they admit it was here.

I was curious about the rear wing on the silver one, does it retract down?
