Face Lifted Porsche 997 on the Nur

Looks like Porsche has made some minor tweaks to the 997, know what that means? An excuse for the Porsche engineers to hang it out on the Nur... I can see their board rooms now...

Marketing: "Why don't we release a new shade of `Lapis Blue'?"
Engineering: "The Color may reflect heat differently thus changing the aerodynamics, we must test this change at the track"
Marketing: "Oh okay, very well"
Engineering: "Woo-hoo! Another company paid trip to the Nuerburgring!"

Unless there is something more under the skin only the most die hard Porsche fans are really going to notice th changes. The LED tail lights are neat, but that's the only real stand out to me and hardly a reason to do track testing. My theory is there might be some other tweaks in play here.
