Here's The Porsche 919 Tribute Casually Cruising The Streets Of New York

Before conquering Spa-Francorchamps, Porsche's evolved 919 went for a more gentle drive in New York City

The ‘Tribute’ tour of Porsche’s now semi-retired 919 doesn’t only involve smashing circuit records. Just before its outing at Spa-Francorchamps - which saw the car snatch the outright record away from Lewis Hamilton and his Mercedes F1 car - Porsche sent the car around the streets of New York City for a more gentle run.

The run looks to have been done using a car without the ‘evo’ modifications used to conquer Spa - it doesn’t have the reshaped front end, lower and wider side skirts nor the larger rear wing - but it still looks pretty badass rolling around the Big Apple.

As well as the video above, Porsche has released a big gallery of photos for us to enjoy. Here are the highlights:

The 919 Tribute’s next stop? That’d be the Nurburgring. Oh yes…

would like to hear the sound of the panamera and the 919 rather than the music though

So it’s just a regular 2017 919. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Porsche must have pulled some sort of strings because that car does not have any plates whatsoever
