991 turbo expected release date??
Does anyone have any reliable information on the release date for the 991 turbo? My dealer is telling me anywhere from 12 to 24 months (based on what Porsche has done with prior new model launches) but there is some speculation that it may debut in a couple of months at the Geneva show.

That was my original plan to get a 991S Cab and replace my 997C2S cab, this was fine until it got interrupted by a Turbo S LOL

I thought I would be happy with a new 991 S until I drove a 2008 GT2 a buddy of mine owns. Because I don't want to wait 18 to 24 months to get a car I plan to buy the 991 S and I trade up for the 991 turbo when it is released - yes I understand the depreciation loss, but one has to have priorities in life.

I can order a 991 S to my specs (which I plan to do this week) with an early March build and an early April delivery. It was a blast to drive the 991 and frankly I like the new size, interior, larger wheels, etc.
