What I see is $10K for 10 more HP plus active suspension. About the same price per HP as the power kit currently, with the "better" suspension thrown in.

Hopefully the S will also package a lot of nice options like the current C4S that will make it worthwhile.

The "S" will come standars with the Chrono package, PASM (adjustable suspension), 19" wheels instead of 18, aluminum look instrument package, and some other doohickeys. Oh, and 30 (thirty) more horses.
Give the Porsche web site a try it's quite entertaining.

Based on the info on the PCNA site, specs and talked about MSRP, I'm glad I didn't wait and just bought the 40th for such a good price. The new 997's won't be discounted and equipped the way a 40th comes as standard, the 997 will probably cost 12 - 15K more than what I just paid. My other observation is the rear end is a little too rounded, almost like the Audi TT and Lexus SC400. Just my opinion.
Can't wait to get the new ride tomorrow morning!
