    Re: 997 facelift

    Find it really something new! Somewhat special and you'll have to get used to the new look, but surely: different!

    Re: 997 facelift

    I wonder what the top speed will be on the "S" with PDK

    293km/h~ w/6-Spd Manual on the current "S"

    My guess 300km/h ~ 305km/h

    Add Power-Kit 310km/h ~ 315km/h

    The current X51 already does 300 km/h, so the standard S should be at least as fast. Regarding the powerkit, I doubt we'll see more than 305 km/h. That would seriously tick off many Turbo owners.

    The Specs tells about "18-inch Carrera IV wheel, 19-inch Carrera S II wheel".
    ...just like the wheels on the blue car???
    I don't like it very much..
    PS: I called this morning Porsche Italy to ask about Official News: the dealer confirmed me...nothing official 'til first week of June.

    mmmhhh...
    Having a better look they're not so bad...
    I think Turbo wheels are the best wheels ever made
    (but only in Porsche Turbo of course)

    I really don't know which kind to choose...
    bah....decisions decisions

    To each his own on that of course.
    Early-on there was a lot of push back on those wheels....and personally, if I had an in-bound Turbo, I'd change em out before she hit the streets.
    But, wheel preference is personal.
    Only opin that counts is yours.

    I have a feeling that the GT2 wheels will be included as an option for the facelift.

    Is that on a 911? Can anyone zoom in to read the numbers relating to the gear on the speedo - are there 7?

    Wheel is from a interior shot of Panamera.
    Could be a clue as to how the shift buttons may be configured

    Totally garish IMHO! On the other hand, better colour coordination + usual black/leather/carbon/aluminium packaging could dramatically change the situation

    The dealer should have color swatches he can show you. Take those out into sunlight and the differences between Meteor and Slate should be very obvious. There was a post that talked about Slate being discontinued...
