The old one is a "man's" badge..the new one looks feminine and it looks like they tried cutting corners and saving on cost/materials. Probably says "made in china" if you take it off and look at the back.

It is good for about 12 mph at the top end due to less wind resistance. It is a performance mod!!!

The new one also includes a tracker that lets Porsche know where you are at all times.

2008 turbo cab with embossed crest.

Night and day difference between the two. Helps the car hold its resale value. With the special Valve stem caps it's probably about 10 BHP.
