That bumper would look good on the turbo.

Nice find...as always. Yeah, I also wonder about the tech changes. I am sure that no one here would mind a few tweeks to the engine. A little more HP maybe?

You know the more I think about it the more it makes sense that they will make tech upgrades. I mean how much testing does a new bumper require? I would bet there are gonna be other changes also.

I agree with you cuz there has been a lot of criticism of the Cayman S and how it is so close to the Carrera. Maybe they want to widen the gap and make the Carrera much faster/better!!

They also changed the shape of the rear tailights and cammo'd it, probably for a rear reflector strip. This is the new turbo-look 997 C4S guys!

There has been rumors that the base 911 will get the 3.8 motor and the Cayman will eventually get the 3.6 motor
Anyone know if there is any truth to this?

No. NO ONE knows the truth about ANY of this. 100% speculation at this point.
