Thank you for sharing.

see a few posts down.....they are also getting direct injection and the "S" is getting a power bump to at least 370...but I've read other articles that suspect 375-380.

those aren't the led's.....those are simply a plug-n-play accessory option for the standards red/white tails currently being sold.

the new led's are physically a different size (smaller and non-retrofittable)....and will accompany dual projector adaptive headlights in the front as well as the power increase.

the new 997 won't be out until late summer/early fall....around the time of the frankfurt auto show where it will debut.

So can anyone confirm if the LED taillights, updated headlights, and the power increase is for 2008 Carrera's or 2009 Carrera's?
