Not sure as i cannot see the butresses of the previous spy shots??

Autocar seem to think it is the Spider

Interesting that they have used what used to be a coupe to make it. Also, incidentally, this car is one of the few, early Green cars.

The picture I have posted is how it used to look - note the long pipes too.

I dunno. I think it might be a powertrain mule, not the Spyder. Those panel gaps along the roofline kind of look fake to me, as if somebody was trying to make it seem like a Spyder.

Yes, there is a 4.8 litre V8 variable vane twin scroll turbo's lurking in there. But standard wheels?

will MY2014 be the spyder?

I hope that it is the spyder. I love the idea that the glass will be maintained and keep the angle. If there were a way to sink the roof behinds the seats and have the buttress be more subtle with the glass in place it would be gorgeous and blow away the looks of the 458 spyder.

So true! and that's what I thought when I first saw the spy shots. The gaps look so fake. And the glass from the back doesn't really belong to a spyder.

My guess is powertrain mule for the F1 v.2.
