Re: HOT: Pictures from Facelift 997!!!!
Are you sure this is a facelifted model?
Could it be someone who just made some body mods to his 997?
The front looks like mine after fitting the Speedart 2-piece front lip spoiler. Also, where is the rear diffuser?
How was it camouflaged?-it looks normal.

OK. So, when is the Frankfurt Auto Show?
Because, that is the show we are all waiting for for correct.
If Porsche is going to show a facelifted 911, that's where we will see it.
Then we will finally know if it is coming out soon!
Starting September 13...
Re: HOT: Pictures of 997 Facelift!!!!
personally, it doesn't make sense to me that porsche would show a revised 997 in september if they're hoping to sell current models through the fall and winter... my guess is that if they're going to come out with a 997 face-lift next spring as an "early" 2009 model it'll be shown late next winter or in spring of 2008.
**
perhaps we can get a sense by looking at when the Cayenne was officially shown at an autoshow, and when did they stop production of the then current model and when did it hit dealers?

Hello everybody!
Does anybody got an idea, when the next 911-Generation will probably come to the dealer? I heared something of 2010/2011?
Maybe I should start a new thread with this question / topic?!
Greetings
To early to speculate, the face lifted hasn't even hit the showroom floors yet. It will most likely live on 3-4 years after the face lift.

What's the expectation in terms of power for the CS? another 20/25HP as in the 996 facelift?
Rumours vary between a 20 and 45hp increase. The higher power output of up to 400hp for the Carrera S is the newest rumour and seems to be rather likely. This seems quite reliable since the engine will become direct injection. That would also explain the early production stop for the GT3/RS because the difference between the FL-Carrera S and GT3/RS will be too small. Also remember the massive power increase of the Cayenne engines after they've got DI-engines.

Well considering the R8 performances i think they better update the car to meet them. 400 bhp? humm....if i know porsche enough that will not be the power output of the new carrera S.
380 maybe?
yeah, though, i don't know how much of a threat R8 sales will be (my guess is it's a low volume car -- anyone know what the projections are?) so how much porsche will position the 997 to compete i don't know. also, it costs antoher 25 grand or so i believe (closer to the 997tt i think..) but the car got an incredible write up in EVO magazine recently.

Base will be likely 350hp and the S will be 375hp. Can't upset S owners and X51 owners...
If they go by your figures, aren't they already upsetting S and X51 owners
I think Porsche is less concerned with upsetting current owners as much as giving them a reason to trade up

I like the rear view, still have to get used to to the new fog light graphics at the front. Perhaps it will work without any camouflage. Also the bigger rear mirrors don't look as bad as once expected, at least in black.
With the 400hp-DI-engine in the Carrera S (if true), this will be a very tempting car.

. You're right with 400 hp I believe Porsche will sell these babies like there is no tomorrow.HP was what Porsche was lacking Vs. the competition. If CS comes with 400 hp I will be in the waiting list ASAP.

You are absolutely right. I am currently in a holding pattern regarding my next purchase. But, if PAG introduces the aforementioned 911, I'll be in queue ASAP!
