time slowed down or Porsche taking so long to reveal the new turbo ?

Geneva or Frankfurt ?? let us know your guess and why ??

John 996 TT Cab

I voted Frankfurt because Porsche is supposed to release the GT3 at Geneva next month and I'd be surprised if they did both at same time.

Frankfurt it is.
Simultaneous release of Turbo and Turbo S, just got confirmation from my dealer.

Sulaiman

turbo and turbo S ?

that never happened

and im gussing they are releasing Macan in frankfurt not the turbo

so maybe turno on Geneva and Macan in Frankfurt or thats what i want

This makes sense as with the other 911 variations the S model is launched along with the base one, so why do so differently for the turbo as they have done in the past. Great if both versions are released together. Buyers will have an option. Though the turbo base would be a better deal if you don't want expensive options like ceramic brakes.

What happened to the Targa?

The Geneva surprise.

But it will be as I wrote above, dealer has certitude that the car will be unveiled at Frankfurt and will be simultaneously be released in Turbo S guise. There has been a lot of negative reaction from 997 turbo buyers who got their car delivered same moment the turbo S got launched. So now there will be direct choice. And guess what : this will result in bigger portion of turbo S buyers => more money for Porsche, that's all they want...

(as I had a pre-order sine jan 2012 for a 991 turbo, we will be given the choice for turbo or turbo s come september. I would prefer a turbo s but without those PCCBs...which will be impossible, in rain situations they really were a nuisance on my 997 4S)

Sulaiman

i would love to have the Turbo S ,,, but i dont like the PCCB

but as i read every where Porsche is pushing the prices 25% more than 997 ..

dunno that seems so high i mean stupid high

My dealer said there may only be a turbo S, no baseline turbo...of course I find that pretty ridiculous. Trickling out marginal model upgrades is what keeps the profits flowing!

Keadog

I hope you're correct. I was at the dealer yesterday looking at the Espresso leather interior in person and the salesman says he hasn't heard a word.

Sulaiman

Any new thoughts .. It seems that turbo is really coming in the next 2 days !!! Or it's just me ??
