Showing the benefits of a timeless design that's refined instead of changed, the Porsche 911 has aged remarkably well. The current generation has been with us since August 2011, when it was revealed just ahead of the Frankfurt Auto Show, which means the facelift is on the way and will likely debut next September.
We've already seen the 991.2's new looks, previewed on what we believed was a prototype for the new GTS model. However, another prototype has emerged for testing, this time clearly sporting the details of a Turbo.
Because the new 911 Turbo has only been out a short while, and because the active aerodynamics were so complicated, the Turbo facelift is not very substantial. A new strip of daytime running lights, new air vents for the rear bumper and new tailight graphics – that's about it.
Since the Turbo and Turbo S have just gone on sale as 2014 model year cars, it's unreasonable to think these changes will be ready before late next year.
