Would that be on the facelifted option spied on the Ring ? LED tail lights and a rumoured direct injection engine pushing power up by 20hp. Looking at the video, that car does not have the double clutch transmission, does not mean it won't be available.

There's been plenty of shots of facelifted Carreras a while back, but it's the first one I see of a Turbo, so an announcement in Geneva and availability late summer for MY09 does not look like a far fetched theory. I've seen plenty of 997TTs sitting on showrooms at MSRP, not quite the tidal wave that was once expected.

GREAT! Thanks for the video!

I LOVE this Facelift Turbo!

The LED is so cool and 500HP is a nice # to start at.

That's what I think too, I guess I can order this car before summer as a MY09 model.

Right now, my dealer already has some Nov/Dec build TT selling at a cheaper price.

Maybe that's mean the facelift might come earlier than we thought...

"I'm sick of Porsche's 911 being facelifted for over 20 years already...
Overdone, over-hyped, overly sick of too much publicity.
We know the facts, the history behind and all, but this is just getting too much." from video comment
