The positive, there are plenty of OEM & aftermarket parts to dress it up a bit.
The negative, most of those parts are expensive. I must be out of touch with reality when $19k is normal for a full body kit. Idk…

 

You guys complaining about the look of the headlights do realize that all those pics still have stickers on them right?

I think the big upgrade 958.1 owners will want is that new steering wheel. That looks very nice indeed.

 

I too am discouraged by these spy shots. Can you still order a"14 or is it too late? Curious.

 

gnat, I do see the stickers on the lights. Guess I am used to the current design.

 

If you look at the Pic I included in the #46 post you can see it pretty well. There still a translucent covering on the head lights. Looks like there might be a cover on the signal bars in the bumper too.

 

today my salesperson at the dealership told me that the hood will be "slightly" more aggressive, than current, they will blend the rear/reverse white color close to the red, more like the pana, raise the white LED on the front as seen in other pics to that there isn't as much of a gap as our current ones. Nothing new inside he "said" would be nice with a new PCM but who knows...

That's all I've got... for now.

 

Indeed. Also rear bumper with enclosed exhaust looks like a dreaded x5.

 

Or going back in time to the 957??

 

My thoughts exactly. Front and back starting to look like the 597 with straight line approach. Talk about back to the future.

 

Just saw this video today from the Fast Lane Car people:

 

Are we sure that the 2015 will not have a PDK transmission - the Aisin 8-speed is pathetic?

 

apparently its only a minor facelift. but they will generally reserve the GTS for a later production whenever they do a facelift. historically its 1 year

 

The new front end looks like the Macan, it is not as "pointy" as the current model.

 

Ouch, that new rear end does not look good, reminds me of the look of the Audi Q7, which IMO is the worst rear end of the large SUVs. Too square across the middle and odd looking.

 

Eh, I don't think it's pathetic at all. Works great for the vehicle. Would not want PDK in something this large.
