Suggestion
The launch of the Turbo convertible and GT3 in the spring of 03 should mean that we won't see a body change for the 996 until 2004 or 2005.

================================================
PORSCHE
Boxster: The 2003 Boxster and Boxster S receive a freshening.
A redesigned Boxster is planned for 2004. The interior will be roomier, and the exterior styling will further differentiate the Boxster from the 911.
The Boxster Clubsport, a low-volume, lightweight, high-performance Boxster, is planned for spring 2004. "Clubsport" is expected to be the name given to several high-performance Porsches. A Boxster coupe will arrive in spring 2005.
911: The 911 Turbo convertible will be added in February 2003 followed in April 2003 with the 911 GT3.
Carrera GT: Porsche's $350,000-plus sports car will debut in June 2003. The Carrera GT will have a 6.0-liter, V-10 engine that produces 558 hp and 330 pounds-feet of torque. The hand-built Carrera GT features a carbon chassis and body, and ceramic brakes. A top speed of 205 mph is promised.
Porsche will build only 1,000 units during the car's lifetime. Assembly is slated at the automaker's new plant in Leipzig, Germany.
E2: Porsche is expected to expand its vehicle range with the addition of a large GT coupe that will share the Cayenne's drivetrain. E2 is the program's code name.
Still to be decided is whether the car will be a 2+2 or a coupe with ample seating for four. Production is expected to begin in 2006 at Leipzig.
The Cayenne, Porsche's first sport wagon, goes on sale early next year.
Cayenne: U.S. sales of Porsche's first awd sport wagon will begin in early 2003. Two versions will be introduced: An S version with a 340-hp 4.5-liter V-8 and a turbo version with a 450-hp 4.5-liter V-8. Porsche promises a top speed of 165 mph for the turbo model.
The high-horsepower Clubsport will be produced in 2005 or 2006. That model is expected to have a 600-hp 5.5-liter twin-turbo V-8 with a price about $100,000.

How am I going to afford all these new cars?
ANSWER: One at a time...just like the rest of us. I can conceptualize almost everything except the 2+2. There were 2 "photoshop" concepts in magazines a few months ago re the 2+2 and neither looked exciting.
This is all very good news. The launch of the Turbo convertible and GT3 in the spring of 03 should mean that we won't see a body change for the 996 until 2004 or 2005.
I guess a 2005 model launched late in 2004, or possibly even early 2005?
Sounds good to me!!
