Re: Facelift timeline
Is someone lollowing my thougts?
Facelift is due to be MY 09?? With all respects i can't imagine that prototypes with only another nose and rearlights have to be onthe road for another year unless:
These package covers far bigger news as there's to be: Direct fuel injection and / or PDK.
In that case maybe the testmules have to cover some longer testroads. Otherwise i thib-nch the facelift will come september at the IAA.
What do you guys think?

I believe so. The car is ready it's just a matter of when to market it. Due to slow sales (Porsche needs something new out in the market) I bet this car will be '08 MY as opposed to '09. Just my $.02.

You might be right, Ron. When do you think Porsche will reveal the 998 (or however it will be called)? Maybe 2010 (MJ 2011)? I only want to do a short step in the futur, it's not the theme of these threat!

You and the rennteam-Members are my information-pool!

I love the rear!!
But the red rear line?
Who actually started the rumour about that red stripe?
I don't think there is one. Just some people seem to realy want it.
I am glad it is not coming back, the red line was ok at the time , in the eighties, but now I think it is completely outdated !

I agree 100%
Me too.
Red stripe only really looks cool with the narrow rear lights, last seen at the 993.
Interior
If the revised Cayenne is anything to go by there will be no change in the interior. Noticably the new Cayenne does not offer keyless go or iPod connectivity, or a decent navigation system.
The best you might hope for in 997.5 is for that f*cking wart to be taken out to the woodshed and gotten rid of. At that point maybe Porsche can offer the "Sport" option as std.

Re: Facelift timeline
There are some new photographs on Auto Motor und Sport's website:
http://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/news/auto_-_produkte/hxcms_article_502422_14973.hbs
AND they state that the FL will probably be presented at this year's IAA show in Frankfurt (september 2007).

What about new gudget? TV, night view etc...
and ...mini bar, seats with incorporated massage, double glase windows for extra protection and in board noice quality in order to hear the TV better, heated steering wheel, back up camera, voice dial, interior pre heating system..... but how will they fit all that in the 911 ?
Maybe they should make it bigger and more comfortable

They also state that the 997TT and the new TT Cab are unlikely to be effected by the facelift... Very interesting

The pic from auto motor & sport is already here in this threat... I think it is here or not?
Nevertheless it is not a real good PS.
To the TT and the TT Cabrio: Yes, the facelift will also have an effect on them - the rear lights!
