I can't see why my dealer would lie to me, I've bought cars from my salesman before when he was at another dealership. The dealer has a good reputation also, did they need my deposit that bad? Or maybe they just assume there will be an 09? Has Porsche ever skipped a model year Turbo before? if there isn't going to be an 09 I guess my search for an 07/08 continues. Anyway I guess I'll find out soon.

@nyamg - There will be a 09 Turbo.
The changes are expected to be as follows:
- center console + PCM upgraded
- "big ear" wing mirrors
- rear lights
- big price hike!
No changes to the engine or power output.
No PDK yet.
No mechanical differences for turbo till 2010

With all due respect, paying deposits on cars that haven't been announced and that you can't even spec yet seems a bit strange. The dealer gets your money while all you get is a promise for "information" in two weeks. Nice for the dealer . . . Not so much for you. Be sure that the terms of your deposit includes a clause allowing you a full refund if you change your mind or something else changes. And if nothing is in writing, insist that it be or get your money back in a hurry.
Good luck. I hope it all works out for you.

A bit strange? You must be joking. Would it be less strange to wait until the next GT3 is announced and THEN call your dealer to put a deposit down? In a couple years I'll be the strange guy with a new GT3 that I bot at MSRP. The normal people will be the ones trying to decide how much over they're willing to pay, if they can find a car to buy.

) that I enjoy thoroughly. But the eventual deal is for MSRP, so no nickle-dick for me. I really like the 997 so much that I might even consider giving my spot to someone who would sell me theirs at that time for a really great price. It's fun to contemplate, but I'll figure out how to slice my pie after it comes out of the oven.

+1 The Porsche dealer where I placed my order for an 09 911 Turbo has confirmed that Porsche has invited a representitive from most every dealership to a meeting this June in Spain . This meeting will discuss all of the changes scheduled and the status of the 911 turbo as well.. So unfortunately everything we hear before then will only be a rumor.

My understanding is there will be a short run of 09's then nothing till 11. That comes from GM at the dealership I buy my cars at...........of course we were pounding JD, staring at the hot barmaid!!!! during the conversation
