Correct me if I am wrong but facelift in Porsche world is a nip and tuck here and there and nothing more. More often than not, unless pointed out, no one can tell the difference. So why the excitement?
I agree. It's a joke. Somebody figured out do all the faceifts so all that's involved is front and rear "bumpers." It's a cheap and easy way to create a buzz that stimulates sales.
All the car companies do it now. Gotta get a new car not because the one you have is falling apart but because your car suddenly looks dated after two years.
Like the prescription eyeglasses industry. Not too long ago you bought a pair of glasses every five or ten years(?). Now it's all about _fashion_ eyewear. Every year there's a new fashion to make people spend more.
Frickin stupid, turns us all into fashion monkeys and excessive consumerism is bad for the planet.
