Default Facelifted GT2 launch date?

Does anyone have any idea when we should expect the 997.2 GT2 ? I've just placed an order for the 2010 GT3 but was thinking if I should wait for the facelifted GT2?

AFAIK, final tests are under way now and it should be available for delivery springtime 2010
Most credited rumors are +50hp and -80kg
No clue about a possible presentation date, anyway

pmf: Any idea what the -80 kg would consist of in terms of lighter parts?

GT2D, to be honest I have no information
I am quite interested to learn if they dump aircon, navi, etc... or this is through the use of more advanced (and expensive) materials
The way they went will make a difference for deciding if it will be worth swapping the car

The only other reason I see for a swap would be a proper limited edition car, but I am not so sure this will make a difference in today's world (even if I heard that there is no plan for a 998 GT2...)

Let's wait and see, it will not take long

Is this confirmed or just a rumour? Will it have the 3.8L from the MY10 turbo, or continue with the current 3.6L boosted up?
