We saw this car like...months ago. In the ride.

And it's not like the old ones looked any good anyway.

If not over a year ago.

It'll look better in show conditions anyway.

Hard to get excited about this with Radiator Springs Racers on the way to DHS.

This refurb won't make anyone like the ride who doesn't care for it, but that doesn't mean it won't be better.

That's another way to put it :lol:

It shouldn't be this way, but hopefully this encourages other sponsors to consider tossing in some money for upgrades.

Epcyclopedia has posted a construction update and notes some interesting developments regarding the facade.

The front entry area of the old Test Track / World of Motion building is being torn out and off and replaced with what appears to be a new covered entry area. The three main entry doors are essentially gone and the side flanking walls have been ripped into to expose the support beams. If those beams will simply have other items attached and the surrounding walls repaired/patched or if they too will be removed to reopen the space to something closer to the original World of Motion design remains to be seen. The original design of the building had this area open as a covered portico beneath the sponsor lounge – which is still visible in the windows above the entrance space.

I think he's referring to the workers on the scaffolding next to the orange and yellow striped building.

I'm not sure yet. What I've heard is that the ride has fallen behind schedule to repair structural/foundation issues, then combine it with the new software. I'm willing to bet Spring opening for the ride, but the post show will be open by late fall, if not the pre show too.
