Yes, that is my concern. I thought the minor refreshments they had done now, including the ones for the S version where the changes that many magazines were referring to.

I love the way in which the auto 997 turbo is a fair bit faster than the manual. Those variable geometry turbines sound like the biz too. In auto form it hits 200 km/h in 12.2 secs 
!!! M5 does the same in about 15. Best car in the world guys, I'm tellin' ya
