RC,
And then I presume one year later, an X50 powerkit will be made available for the Turbo S! Never happy, those costumers!
Well done on the cracking info!

Any word on TCab and TSCab release (presumably simultaneously and in the USA around the same time, as well )?

Unless they build the 997 Turbos in small Ferrari like volumes , expect all current and future Turbos ( and other 911s ) to depreciate pretty much like any euro lux car , esp on this range leading model that those with the means are always upgrading to. Who wants last year's now superceded " best one ever " ?

Thanks RC.
They are launching in 997 sequence then. The Turbo cab/Turbo S cab will be out a month or 2 after the coupes.
Glad I already have my Turbo S cab deposit down and 1st at my dealer.

I suspect anyone w/a brain who bought a 996TTS knew (and didn't care that) it would depreciate like any other P/SL55

No, the F430 will hold its value ALOT more. There's a 5 year wait list for one at MSRP. The V8 Ferraris hold 100% or more of their value for 3 years when driven lightly. There aren't many driven 15k/yr, but I imagine that they'll still hold their value better than the P-cars...

RC,
You're the man! Thanks for that awesome info!
Same strategy as the Carrera then, which is fine as it seems to be working allright.
And then I presume one year later, an X50 powerkit will be made available for the Turbo S! Never happy, those costumers!
