I only see two cars with the red line, a c4 coupe and a c4s convertible
Exactly... The stripe used to be for the S .
So is this a tripe or not ?
If yes, will all the C4 have it and not only the S ?
I think the camoflauge people are having fun with us.

Secret Porsche Puddle Martyr Society
Sadly the Secret Porsche Puddle Martyr Society (SPPMS) have had all their really crisp, high detail interior shots confiscated and have been thrown into an interrogation room in Weissach. That means no pictures of interiors with or without puddles for the forseable future, for which we apologize, but undoubtedly those amongst us with short-term memory loss will continue to ask for them...

Re: Facelift timeline
From another source, that may be credible.......the shift to 09 production this summer will find the car relatively unchanged. What we see as 'Facelift' won't roll off line until March 2009, probably as a MY2010.
If so, it surprises the heck out of me. I was actually thinking MY08 would be a short production & kick to facelift early.
No secret the U.S. production allocations are slated to be down significantly this year.
Anyone else hear any of the same?.......or have good reason to find this info bogus?

Re: Facelift timeline
My dealer told me last week that their spring allocation was cut back sharply leading them to suspect a summer intro of the facelift. I hope they're right (I've got their first facelifted Targa), but even they admit that it's all conjecture and that Porsche is saying absolutely nothing.

MY dealer confirms likewise and many have put down deposits for 2008 June production and he said that they would NEVER BE PRODUCED and the quota will be moved to September production after factory vacation October delivery.
He said while Porsche had remained quiet all all FL's news, I think the FL will come this summer. First all, quotas are cut for sure. Second of all, sales said it was surefooted that the FL will come and it would not only comprise of cosmetic changes. In fact, across the board the PDK will be launched and DFI on all 911s. I sort of would tend to think that because with the rollout of BMW's DKG, PAG has to do something to upgrade its flagship. Finally, all the spyshots and testing must lead to something and we all know that the 997 turbo is due for a FL but since that was just launched, they would do it to the 911 first. I am sure that the FL/PDK PUDDLES whatnot will come this summer.
Re: Facelift timeline
I have been told by 2 different dealers, 09' model build will start sometime in May. It will surely inlude the DFI (with plus 25hp maybe a touch more & even greater tourque increase). Nominal increase in US price. Nearly all details to be known at some point in March.
