    I wonder if those fender flares are going into production since they seem to be riveted on. Would allow for some crazy widths and offsets.

    Yeah, sorry the pictures are not really the interesting part. According to the article

    "Both cars in our exclusive pictures are prototypes, using current generation bodywork, but each mule clearly features widened front and rear tracks."

    The Q&As in the article are more interesting

    I know Porsche usually doesn't change anything dramatic, but this looks exactly the same as before except the rear lights are changed slightly. Looks nice still but doesn't really merit "next generation" to me.

    Porsche design engineers at their finest.

    Would rather chill out, eat german sausage than to draw up, new innovative designs. 911's never change.

    this update was way too minor to get excited over. the 2010 update is what i am lookin forward to. The new Cayman/Boxster will have a brand new chassis that is shared with a new Audi R4 mid engine roaster.
