Fall 2006 = 998 most likely.

By then, there will probably be a 997 GT3 & GT2, 997 Turbo, etc.

I'm sure Porsche will be fine.

I'd actually be more worried about the C6, which is pretty much already here.

 

sounds nice, we'll see what the final prodcut has to offer

 

Maybe it'll get Bangled by then...

 

I just puked all over my 3000 Powerbook G4. Thats the ugliest car i've ever seen.

 

really. that looks pretty good to me

btw, when is the horsepower war gonna stop?? i'm sick of it

 

slight hijack: Ben, that's not your Carrera GT at Pioneer is it? I stopped by to check it out today and it is gorgeous.

nope, mine is coming from kansas and not til november :-( hoehn has one on the showroom too.

btw, that's the first bangled bmw i've seen and actually liked. then again, we haven't seen the back and it still comes with bmw "service".

 

Was at my Porsche dealership last week to pick up my C4S with the X73 suspension (I'll post some pics when I get a chance.).

Found out some interesting info (we'll see if it is true):

The 997 body style will only apply to the C2 and C2S.

The C4S will only be in a 996 body style and be special order only, i.e. NO regular production run.

The TT will only be in a 996 body style until the 998 arrives. There will be a regular production run, i.e. not like the C4S. Rumour has it as well the X50 option will be standard.

The GT3 was only a one year production run. (Will depend on popularity I guess on how many they actually make...just like the GT).

No word on the GT2, but if the TT stays in the 996 body style then one can assume the GT2 will as well.

With time we will see if any of this comes true .
