I agree with frank, if you're willing to wait until an 09 model year car comes around, then going to the dealer and making a deposit with a filled out car configurator spec sheets (porsche.com) is probably a good idea

I know which dealer I won't be going back to for anything again.
That was Allegreto's RS, I think he has already picked it up. Personally, I like that dealer and have bought several cars from them including a 997 GT3 at msrp.

Where is this mkII GT3 information coming from. I have heard nor read nothing about this. I can see the 3.8l in the "998" or whatever the next generation 911 is called, but a mid model engine change would be completely asinign. If you are going to start these rumors please back them up with credible sources.

My dealer did not make any reference to 09's when he gave my deposit back.
