Default 2009 Base vs S

Other than the 40hp, bigger brakes and rims, does anyone know the differences between the 2009 base 911 and the S?

Rear brakes rotors are the same. Aren't the front brakes rotors the same in diameter but different in width? Anyone know why are are that way or if the extra width will really contribute to shorter braking distances or just resist brake fade?

The ordering guide was posted here in the last 2 weeks, which should identify all of the differences between the two.

Edit--here it is also: http://www.6speedonline.com/forums/s...d.php?t=134232

There is an "S" on the back engine cover unless "Deleted Badge" has been special ordered...

I Kill Myself...

OK - now that I got that out of my system - check the doc as posted - there are quite a few changes other than some of the major ones that have been listed above - also some items are only available on the "S" vice the standard.

According to the order guide they both have xenons.
Swiveling xenons are optional on both the S and the base one.
