Some new spy pics from Auto Motor Und Sport. Not a TT but the headlamps presumably would appear on the freshened TT. Check out the box on the right of the main page....

I like em a lot!

 

I still like the headlights on the current 997 for now ! But I might change my mind when I see the new headlights in person !

 

Looks good! Sorta like a compressed version of the headlights in the Carrera GT.

 

I like those new wheels (hard to see, but can make them out if look closely...)

 

Projector high beam. Nice. Although in the looks dept. it kind of seems 'busy' vs. the current headlights.

The kink in the inside of the rear lamps seems to be a new 'look' for the brand. Cayenne's got them too.

 

Front HL look like they might be retrofittable

 

I think the current headlamps look better ... but who knows, maybe they would look good in real life on a TT

 

Amber sidemarkers - either a US car or more camo, or maybe US testing. And what about the non-color brake calipers? Hmmmm.....

 

I suspect the revised lamps will be retrofittable - too expensive to retool for new quarterpanels for a mid-life freshening. They look pretty nice but not a marked improvement over current. In fact I think they look a bit busy. Audi has the best headlamp design at the moment I think....very complex reflectors and they look very expensive.

Yeah, that new wheel design looks quite nice. Got to say though, I don't like the general shape of the Targas vs the fixed coupe.

 

I would think that the rear lights+valence (obviosuly would need both) would also be retrofit-able... The top edge of the rear LED's appears to hold the same line, but lower is different, so new rear bumper/valance would be necessary (inclear if exhaust tips sit same way). Prob not cheap to mod, but open to the idea... we'll see.

 

You'll probably be able to find them on ebay

 

Non S model....

 

Non-color calipers are the standard brake caliper colors on base Carreras.

I don't think you guys would want to retrofit those new headlights onto your current 997. The current headlight assembly unit is about $1800-$2000 EACH!!!

 

New headlights look good, better than the current set up.
