Default New rear lights

Porsche is offering som new extras for upgrade, as always.

I guess a lot of people will get these, but I don't know if I like them. Maybe they are better live.

"Functions and dimensions correspond to those of the standard taillights. The now entirely red lens underlines the strong, sporty look of the sports cars. " Says Porsche

They are similar to the Carrera GT, except of the LED.

They are for sale in Europe, quite expensive though, 440 euros. Guess Porsche will make a nice profitt in 2007 also

Shouldn't be any problem to get them. If not send me an PM.

try www.carnewal.com if your dealer can't get it or is too expensive.

They did this in the 1990s with the Porsche 968 models as well. Just another method to separate you from Washington, and Lincoln, and Hamilton....
