I love the rear lamps on the FX for one, very bright.

does anyone have any idea if this "nip/tuck update" will be accompanied by a power increase....as the GT3 and TT have undergone?

If you want more power than you should get the Power kit from Porsche...but it's very expensive...here in Italy is € 12k+
It adds 26 hp to the 3.8 liter for a grandtotal of 381! would be great anyway

yea, that package is like $16k here msrp. if i were going to spend that much (power + aero), i would just get the GT3. I was just hoping that they would bump the power with only a $5k or so increase in base price. i personally think the next logical step is to take the C2/C4 to 355 and the C2S/C4S to 381 w/o the power package, but with an increase in base price.
