New car doesn't exactly get the juices flowing - but at the same time it's naive to think this is going to be the exact look of the car when it rolls out in 2017. It's just an interim aero package - albeit very impressive from VW to get this in place.
Likes others have said I was trying to listen to the sound. Always quite misleading on videos but I doubt there's anything new under the bonnet? Might be wrong though. To me getting the sound right is as important as the visuals. It should sound like violence and thunder, with a few flames to add the lightning.
AFAIK the engine had some extra power compared to the current spec. No details though. This must be very early phase however, first time 2017 car test videos and pictures surfaced.
Malcolm Wilson said in Germany, that from engine or mechanical point of view it's quite clear what you can or can't do. The main changes are bigger restictor and central diff.
But from aero site, there are still some question marks. So is's better to start testing mechanical parts, such as engine and diffs and when the regulations are clear start testing aero package.
