991.1 or 991.2 ??
IS IT BETTER TO BUY NEW 991.1 NOW OR WAIT FOR FACELIFT MODEL 991.2 NEXT YEAR ? Considering the engine changes.... But perhaps the most intriguing news involves the legendary 911 and revamped engines that will grace the 991.2 refresh. CAR is reporting that turbocharged engines wont be limited to just the Turbo and the GT2; they will grace the entire model range in an effort to reduce CO2 emissions and improve fuel economy. 2015 Porsche 911 GTS (991) According to CAR, the base 911 Carreras 3.4-liter flat-6 will be downsized to 2.9-liters with a turbocharger and will develop 400hp/400 lb-ft. The Carrera S 3.8-liter flat 6 wont be downsized, but its turbocharger will boost power to 530hp/520 lb-ft. The 991 911 was introduced back in 2011, and the 991.2 is in the final stages of development. Sources: Autocar, CAR

I just drove the 991.2 Cab for a week while I had my GT4 in for service... Car is nice, but the motor sounds like crap, and if you put it in sport mode prepare for a broken record playing on every throttle lift.
