    Aerokit available.

    The new Aerokit is now mentioned on the german Porsche website and shown within the configurator. ( Euro 5.355,--).

    Looks similar to the 996 one.

    Other than the 996 GT3 looking rear wing, I don't see anything special.

    Porsche should have just added the GT3 nose with a slightly more aggressive looking spoiler.

    Re: Aerokit available.

    So basically you are paying 6k+USD for a painted front/side lips and a new rear spoiler? Not worth it imo...

    I second that. One should have thought porsche learnt from the 996 tt aerokit. I think that was incredible rare, just because it was so incredibly ugly... At least, I 've only seen one once or twice.

    If the lip is made of a flexible enough material it will survive a few weeks. The paint on it will not though

    Re: Aerokit available.

    Not very imaginative on Porsche's part, the spoilers look nearly identical 996/997.

    I had it on my C4S, the lip is a very flexable polyurethane, it flexes very well, but the paint suffers.

    So do I! But I do like the little changed front spoiler.

    Thanks for the pics, Alex (UK)!

    Re: Aerokit available.

    Is it only available in the car configurator? I didn't read any press release or anouncement on the site, and can't seem to find it at the turbo model description...
