    Front bumper looks like a mixture of 996 Turbo with 05 Boxster

    I resized the pic

    Re: 997 Turbo Pics

    Its the round little light that looks interesting. You can see it in the spy pic...its an interesting thing...looks like it is something they maybe are using to differentiate the front end from the rest of the line...

    Another "Chrono Sport" add-on gimmick, but now at your front bumper! Twice !

    Re: 997 Turbo Pics

    This information should be on the 997 Board.
    I highly recommend checking out the 997 Board because we already discussed this camouflage in an older post.
    BTW: the 997 Turbo will NOT look like the blue photoshopped car.

    Re: 997 Turbo Pics

    ok forget about the way the blue car looks, Rc what about the round light/object or whatever it is in the spy pic, what is that?

    Re: 997 Turbo Pics

    Hey RC is it true that the Turbo might come with a headlight that is similar to the CGT?

    It's a good thing it won't look like the blue pic, thanks RC!

    I'm not aware of any frontlight design changes. The facelifted Cayenne gets a "cleaner" frontlight design but the 997 Turbo should get the same frontlights like the 997.

    Re: 997 Turbo Pics

    Earlier today I was at my dealer and put a deposit for the 997 Turbo, in fact they told me that it will be the first car ordered for Greece and that they dont have a release date as yet... I also asked him about the long awaited cayenne facelift, cause i want to upgrade from the S to the Turbo but i dont want to get the prefacelift model(!), and he told me that they havent heard anything, at least for the next 12 months... I am a bit confused with this cayenne facelift thing and dont know what to do...

    Congrats on the 997 Turbo order Malaka!
    As for the Cayenne, you already have an S, so wait for the facelift mate, it'll look slightly different in a good way and might have a few hp more, along with the typical Porsche tradition.

    Expect the Cayenne facelift for MY 2007 (summer 2006).
    This is not official information but should be pretty accurate.
