According to Auto Spies...
What will it be like?
We got a chance to sit down with the Porsche guys to see if we could confirm the rumors of a significant refresh (997) to the current model coming in 2004.
Well sorry to break you hearts, but it's not coming.
Porsche says the next significant change will come on the next body style, but that will not appear for at least two years.
We were also told that the next generation 911 (2005-06) interior will have a very close family resemblance to the Cayenne (Alleluia!). The current dash is a tired design in our eyes, that looks very cheap for a car, of the Porsches stature.
The Audi TT has a nicer dash and interior, for goodness sake!
Our guess is that many parts in the Cayenne dash/console/navigation will be also used in the next generation 911.
