I apologize for helping drag this thread off topic. My concern was for people spreading misinformation, but I think it's time to step back and leave that to the mods.

I suddenly remembered one of the best parts of a Rennlist membership--being able to Ignore users! (click their name, public profile, look for User Lists, click that, then Add to Ignore List)

My last words may well be "Back seats ... 997 GT3 ... but you probably shouldn't", it's not "Rosebud" but it'll do.

Also interesting for US buyers is that a US number plate surround on the rear?

Updated chart here:

Quoting since it's relevant to the thread... wish the mods would delete all the banter about insurance etc.


Anyway, hope the PDK and backseats make it!

Frankfurt starts Sep 14, any news on when Porsche's various events are scheduled??

Thanks for telling me how; was looking for that option.
Adding a couple of users who don't know what they are talking about and add zero value right now!

Since Frankfurt auto show is just around the corner, will there be more info (from the cleaning ladies, chaosoul?) on the Touring Package prior to that?

As it gets closer to announcement they're going to put the Marketing and PR guys on the case and they will start dropping hints to the Auto-Media so we'll definitely know more before the full announcement.

On that note: http://www.automobilemag.com/news/ge...rankfurt-show/

A couple of halls over, Porsche will highlight the new Cayenne, which debuts in 550-hp turbocharged form. The awesome 911 Speedster (watch out for the vintage version!) has been pushed back to LA, but Frankfurt will see the premiere of the GT3 Touring Pack. This stealth model combines the inconspicuous aerodynamics of the 911R with the engine and chassis of the 500-hp GT3. You can’t have PDK, but keep an eye out for the tasteful color and trim choices.
I hope they're wrong regarding PDK.

US dealers are already aware of it. They were informed of the announcement with the new Cayenne in Frankfurt.

I'm sure you understand they will prefer not to be mentioned.

Looking a little more promising. The comment about colour choices is interesting. Unique colours available on touring. That earlier leaked pic of the dark grey may be one of them?

Speedster comment again..
