Them rear lights just don't do it for me.. Maybe look better in the flesh ?
 
thats some sort of cover on the lights... they wont be like that!
 
I like the rear valance bit- like the GT2...

There was talk of direct injection for the engines, i.e more power, but significantly better economy.

And surely PDK will be rolled out across the range?

From the 'informed' sources that i am aware of PDK won't be on the mk2 GT3.

Sorry to dissappoint.

I just read this elsewhere:

Just been at Porsche this morning...gleaned/blagged this from them: -
Deposits (3-5K) now being unofficially taken for 997 Facelift car - for AUGUST 2008 Delivery.

1. DDI injection S models with standard 380 BHP, standard carerra now upto 350 BHP.
2. New Rear Light clusters, slightly narrower with LED lights.
3. New Rear Bumper/PU (think this has been well documented).
4. New Front Bumper/PU again this seems to be well known.
5. New Headlights.
6. New Standard and Optional Alloys.
7. New Touchscreen SAT Navigation System & Bluetooth
8. New DASH, apparently completely reworking of the Interior...more options

Last build slot for current 997 is April 2008. Apparently Porsche GB/Reading have a new car with
some or all of the above, under wraps for evaluation/feedback (their words not mine!)

Has anybody ordered at full whack recently on the current model?
