Guys is not official at 100% but from a reliable source,it seems that these are not pics of the 997 MK2,but are pics of the Carrera Sport,that will be a special edition of the 997,like the 996 C4S/996 40 Jahre were for the 996...
This one will have rear tail lights different to match the tail lights stripe like the 996 C4S,new front bumper simil turbo with led indicator and new directional front lights,that in future will be available for all 997 like option,this car will have also powerkit standard..
I hope this info is true,becouse this friend is well introduced..
That makes so much sense!!!!
The directional lights will be a great option (i agree!!!!! -- though the basic BMW 3 series coup i think comes with them STANDARD!)
if they're NOT pics of the 997 mk2 than what will the the revised 997 look like?
what i don't understand is that the 996 had a six model year life span and after three years they revised it (MY2002) here in the states i believe... they gave it the turbo-look lights, bumped the HP from 300 to 320 i think, suspensions upgrades i believe, etc.
it makes sense that with the 2008 which will be it's 4th model year (2005-2007) that it will receive the now usual REVISION...
and i imagine it would get an HP upgrade, suspension, perhaps a very minor interior tweak and exterior cosmetic changes.
i remember that so many sources were saying that the 997 would arrive with 380 HP for the "S" model and 355 for the standard... perhaps this will finally come.
IMHO, i love the spy pics "new" front bumper -- it looks like the old 996 4S and 996 turbo which i still think looks SO much better than the new turbo and hopefully the turn signals will be integrated or smaller than the current ones... just my opinion of course.
thanks for the post ron.
