Are there any official pictures of the 09. Does anyone know if the interior has been tweaked?
There are no official '09 pics. Also I hear the '09 Boxsters won't be out until late 4th Q as they don't want to steal the thunder of the HP increase for the 911.

Also, don't be surprised if the '09 prices rise more than a few hundred dollars. The US dollar is down considerably relative to the Euro. Porsche can make a lot more money selling their wares in Europe, especially Eastern Europe and the middle East.

I would go for the bargain '08. The HP difference is not going to be 30, more like 15-20. The fuel economy will get better by a bit but is all that worth a $9-10,000 premium over an '08?
