Identification guide
How to tell an original from a replica or later conversion.
Original cars use a 5.7-litre naturally aspirated V10, enlarged from the 5.5-litre racing engine it was developed from, with a Porsche Ceramic Composite Clutch. The chassis is a monocoque of bonded carbon fibre tissue with aluminum and plastic honeycomb materials.
