Porsche Carrera GT...is it out?!

One of my co workers claims that he saw this car today with an actual license plate...I didn't know Porsche had released this car already.

I asked him and he said it had the third brake light on the top...he mentioned there was a lil antenna in there. It was some old white guy driving it. Cali plates. Nothing special that would suggest it's a test vehicle. I dunno if I believe him entirely either...

I have a friend whose dad has some ties with Porsche, since he used to work there, and she told me that the GT isn't due out until March of this year. Although, as stated above there are reproductions and replicas already being made, which could have been what your friend saw today. Anyways, it should be a sweet car...but I'm still a fan of the GT-2!!!
