Looks remarkably similar to the Cayenne Powerkit option bits.....similar to the 996 Turbo S looking remarkably similar to the 996 TT X50 option.

Marketing.....Pure Porsche.

Air inlets on front of car.....interesting, as the Turbo nose is nothing but air openings.

I know ! I dont see how that car is special at all. My 993 turbo 'S' had every available option,and then some you couldnt get (450BHP powerkit, chrome wheels,GT2 suspension) that was a true limited edition car.

These turbo 'S' models they build nowadays,are just marketing crap,and to get one up on their rivals.They are not limited,and they dont have many more extras.I mean,please my CTT has a far higher spec than this 'S', but mine
wont have the 'S' badge. (and NO i wouldnt put one on)

True... but that would void the warranty. How much is the true cost if you "grenade" the engine due to these mods? Porsche certainly won't cover that damage.

Actually the dealer sells GIAC ecu tuning I dont think the exhaust would void the warranty.

Hmmm... I didn't kow that. Is that an official Porsche program... do all dealers do that? Great if they do... but if it's a dealer-specific program, there could be complications if you moved or needed service while travelling somewhere.

I'm not trying to be difficult... just looking for clarification.

Thanks.
