Maybe they want to make a subtle statement that "we can still beat you with less hp". I guess I am still leaning toward my inital prediction of 433 hp actual. Don't want to commit on a stated number.

But, like others said, 400 is enough if the weight were to be kept down. I just don't see enough opportunities to get it lower than the regular coupe, with bigger fenders, brakes, tires, engine, etc. And, I don't think the CF roof will be standard--probably a future CSL variant.
