Face lift is every 4 years...so 2012+4 , 2016...
Don't recall when 991 came out , but spring makes sense.

 

You mean 13+4. So 2017 model with deliveries starting from fall of 2016

 

No, I mean exactly 2012 + 4.
991 is a 2012 model.

 

Sorry I'm talking about the Turbo. I thought you were as well given the subject of the thread

Doing some math now based on precedent....997 TT came out in 06 with a facelift in 09. 991 TT came out in 13 so expect a facelift in 16. Don't think by end of next year...possible by mid,16

 

Sorry, my bad. I was not talking about Turbo, because Turbo facelift comes always after the Carrera so I was thinking about the soonest facelift.

 

Correctamundo. Model Year 2016 991 expected in production early Spring of Calendar year 2015 with face-lift. Don't know if face-lifted 991 Turbo & Turbo S will follow that same schedule as they often beat to a different drum. But, it wouldn't surprise me if we see the facelift on that '16 model too at approx. same time (say no later than June of 2015)!

Doc, I usually just post on Rennlist. Funny you would post that comment & add my name!

Guys is the .1 production shorter than the .2 production?

Just trying to calculate in comparison to the 997. So the 997.1 Turbo came out in 2006 and lasted until 2012 (6 years) with a facelift/new engine mid-production in 2009.

Were customers taking delivery of their '06 Turbos in the fall of '05 and '09 Turbos in the fall of '08?

How would this compare to the 991TT... People took delivery of their 991.1 TTs in the fall of 2013 (making them 2014 models). Does this mean that customers would take delivery of the 991.2 TT in the fall of 2016 (as 2017 models)?

 

I hope it is a year earlier, as I would like to order mine next April/May.

Eduardo, I was hoping you would see my post. You have great info, and I enjoy your posts!

 

^ I doubt it honestly --- because even if the 2013 deliveries were "2013" models, the .2 turbo would be expected in summer of 2016, if anything as a "2016" model. If history repeats itself.
