This latest version, designated internally as 997, is the sports-car manufacturer's most powerful, nimble and environmentally friendly four-place Turbo Coupe to date. For 2008, the Turbo Coupe is joined by a similarly potent Turbo Cabriolet. Highlights What's new for 2008 Other than the addition of a Turbo Cabriolet sibling, the recently introduced Porsche Turbo Coupe goes into 2008 with only minor revisions. Optional leather sports bucket seats Essentially a race seat with a folding backrest, the new sports bucket seat boasts carbon fiber- reinforced construction for a weight savings of 15 to 20 pounds (7 to 9 kg) over standard seats, depending on model. Like all Porsche driver and front-passenger seats, the sports bucket seats have integrated thorax airbags and are compliant with all U.S. safety standards. Aerokit Turbo option This functional appearance package features a new front spoiler lip, new rear lid and rear spoiler with a fixed wing profile. New colors As popular tastes continue to change, Porsche designers continue to refine the palette of available colors. For '08, the new exterior color, Macadamia Metallic is available. Other '08 exterior color changes have Atlas Grey Metallic replacing Lapis Blue Metallic as a special color, Malachite Green Metallic replaces Lagoon Green Metallic, and Carmona Red Metallic is replaced by Ruby Red Metallic. Inside the cockpit, Palm Green is gone from the list of available colors and Carrera Red as a new natural leather option. Service intervals For 2008 models, the recommended oil change interval is now 12,000 miles (20,000 km), or one year.
