Thanks Kreso. Very positive review especially coming from Autocar!
For me this says it all :
"You’d likely find a more powerful and faster car over a wide and smooth surfaced race track. But on normal roads – the sort you and I encounter every day with varying surfaces, odd cambers and all variety of hidden surprises like those served up at the car’s launch in Portugal this week, I seriously doubt any rival – not even a Bugatti Veyron, Ferrari Enzo or Porsche Carrera GT - would come close to matching it for sheer pace or outright dynamic prowess for any length of time."
Just for this reason the new Turbo is my kind of car, a super fast no-nonsense machine for the real world 
interesting from the autocar's article
"...Owing to the increased capacity and higher compression ratio, Porsche has actually decided to dial back boost pressure a touch, from a previous 1.0 to a nominal 0.8 bar, in the interests of added driveability. The result is even keener throttle response and a level of flexibility you really have to experience to believe"

very very very interesting! 
the tuner will like it very much!

i hope all of the above are just urban myths usually assiciated with new models..
You might have save your self so many words, you´ve said it all in the end 
I remember when the 997TT came out , every 996TT owner were bashing the new Turbos...well, enought said.

Never been a fan of aerokits.
The white Turbo looks delicious though. The "Exterior Mirror Attachment Point Finishers Painted Exterior Color" option looks nice too, and I haven't seen many Turbos with that option actually. I wonder why.
Also the headlight washers are in exterior colour. These touches look very nice in some colours (like white). In some other colours they are a waste of money IMO.

maybe the cost to change them was too high

All Porsches get the race-style paddle shifts, as options, starting in January.
I wouldn't sacrifice the MF wheel for the paddles. The current interface suits me fine. Never encountered a problem in almost a year and 15.000kms of use.

Tell me what MF function do you use most oftenly? Volume control maybe? That is my case with all MF steering wheels.
IMHO new paddle sport steering wheel is much better option. I really wanted to like switches(aka puddles) but, I can not force myself to love them. You bought your car when paddle steering wheel was not an option. Just for your info-Porsche expect around 80% of future PDK buyers(of 997.2 series and Cayman/Boxster) to choose paddle steering wheel instead of all versions of switches steering wheel.
Remember a word that W.Rohrl actually worked on design on switches steering wheel? Interesting enough he said at Estoril:"...that Porsche is finally offering true paddles sport steering wheel which is ergonomically much better then the ones with rocker swithces for changing gears." Hmm...

I use the telephone a lot when I am in the car especially in traffic and the MF helps a lot. Also when using audio changing source and radio stations on the move is very easy (and safer) with MF.
I cannot see why they don't a offer a paddle MF wheel 
I think it's marketing again: MF+buttons=comfort; paddles w/o MF=sporty.
Porsche limit buyers' choice in this way, for no reason.
