Wonder if Porsche is going to charge their nice $20k for that extra 25-35hp

What a joke!!!!!

I hope their pricing is more in line with the 2005 Turbo vs Turbo S. Only about $12k difference for more power and ceramic brakes. Not as bad as the $18k they were charging for the X50 option

Remember Lou, the TT-S was an 'empty the parts bin' move by Porsche.

Not a bad thing at all, just a year or two of powerkit parts laying around, they had to do something, you know.
