Doesn't look like the shape can be retrofitted to 07 and 08s.

Porsche sucks!!!!!You spend 130K plus on a car and BOOM one year later they throw out a subtle change which makes your car look dated and you are forced to buy and new one......

Looks sort of funky to me. I don't think LED lights make it look dated.

Yet again, Porsche marketing/sales has screwed us over with the facelift! Good thing I think the current headlights and tail lights look better! I wonder what else is coming with it (daytime running lights, bluetooth, iPod, dsg)?

I'll be buying my future pre-facelift 997 TT on the used market...

Why facelift are so often on Porsche these day , I wonder I should move on to a Fcar at least they don't changes that much on appearance between the same model. But I kind of like the LED tho

Changes are way to subtle for me to even consider changing. Tail lights? who cares? LOL.

does the current TT have FSI (as with the new Audis)?
That may be one change that is coming as well (I believe the facelift Carreras are getting it next year)
Could also be the time for an X50 package since GT2 would have had a year on the market

Because the Fcar is so freak'n sexy to start with, why screw with a good thing?
