Cool, gotta look for that.

Did you also get the 3 Boxster posters a couple weeks ago?
Very nicely done, and one is especially nice with a 550 and some retro style artwork....

Didn't get anything on Boxsters. This is a nice little hardback.

Got two of them yesterday, pretty slick little book. Is the DVD worth watching?

They must know at 4 years in my 997S I'm thinking I love this car and should keep it for a few more years ... but, uh, wouldn't a new paint-to-color one be nice??

As promotional DVDs go, it's pretty dull, mainly because (presumably) there isn't a lot of 997.2-in-motion footage available yet. Pretty stock still pics, though.

It's an expensive looking promo package. They must be making some coin...

I wish they would send me some GT3 teasers instead.

Got it - slick and certain to become a collector's item. The DVD is a flash presentation pretty much like the one available online. It has folders with lots of photos though.
