I wonder whether the facelift C2 will be a real alternative to pre-facelift C2S with xenon's as standard and power boost?

Some nice mods... I especially like the sound of the full width rear reflector for the 4wds.
Targa 4s with all the trimmings inc PDK could well make a 'perfect car' (see my other thread) but a little out of budget...

the power increases seem to reflect the new direct injection engine tech introduced across the range
- 3.6l 345 bhp = 95 bhp/litre
- 3.8l 385 bhp = 101 bhp/litre
although looks like they have still kept the slightly 3.6 detuned to create the model range....
so an extra 30 horse for the 3.8, so what does that mean for the 3.6 415bhp GT3
MUST mean a 3.8 on the cards with close to 440+bhp ?
