I have just acquired a 997 turbo, and have been very excited and impressed ever since smile

Quick question as I would like to get the hard backed A5 sales brochure and price list that matches my car

But I don't know which one I need

Car was first registered in March 2008, so MY08

Looking on eBay there seems to be be two types of 2008 brochure

I have bid and won one that has a publication date of 04/08 - will that be the right one or do Porsche release brochures that early for MY09 which I think begins in September?

The cover shows a silver/grey cab with red interior
The other 2008 brochure (not sure of publication date) shows a macadamia brown cab

Have a got the wrong one?

458 - damn, thanks for confirming my mistake. As I suspected, I need the one with the brown cab, why Porsche don't clearly mark MY0X on the cover or back I dont know!

Zyp - thanks for the kind offer but you have the wrong one that I already bought frown as you say some of the BIN prices are stupid, I paid £9 incl p&p

if anyone has one of these that they don't need I will gladly send £10 to a charity of their choice, or swap it for the MY09 brochure I accidentally bought frown

Are Porsche brochures a future collectable? I have a box of late-80's to early 2000's dealer brochures for 930/944/968/993/993RS/993Turbo/996/996GT3/Carrera GT et al. Where do I sell them?

A bit like my missus, who likes to drag things up from the past.

Will try eBay, thank you!
