Yes they are all playing up North. The spec is on the up bigger engines, 7 speed DSG option and finally bluetooth instead of the sim pocket.

I phoned a Porsche dealer today to ask when the face lifted Boxster Cayman is out and they said new 997 will be availible end of July this yr and they expected face lifted Boxster, Cayman March next year. New Cayman S will get 3.6 engine.

Market cannot be that strong as they have Boxsters from Stock and Cayman 2 to 3 months from Factory.

Gibbo ,heres my current dilema

Keep the M as i do love it
Swap for a used 997C2s, local OPC has a lovely seal grey one
wait.............get a bit more use out of the M to reduce the hit slightly and get a NEW revised 997C2s

what i have worked out is that the OPC is about 10 x more proffesional than any BMW garage


DECISIONS DECISIONS


PS Mikey baby, sounds like the M @ 450bhp would almost keep up with a mapped 335d

I think I would go this way as you have taken most of the hit and should get the most out the M'ster.

Squeeze you take Beauforty out in the M'ster. He buys this from you and then you order new 2009 997 C2 S and then I can come and see your new car.


Win Win.
