Looks like the 2009 Porsche 911 Turbo is getting a little touch up. This prototype spotted in Germany looks like the current model, but we noticed a few minor changes that indicate an imminent midcycle refresh. The front end is unmolested as far as we can tell, but the rear end has new taillights with LEDs and a slightly different lens arrangement. Reshaped tailpipes indicate a reworked exhaust, so there could be a few extra horsepower on tap for a car that's already one of the fastest we've ever tested ...
Look for an official debut early next year.

Is it just me... or are the rear tail lights slightly thinner?

Seems like this car just debuted a few months ago!

Wow! You can get your product in the news by changing the tailights and painting it black!?

The dorky rubber bumperettes are gone as well.

I just wish they would not update these cars so often, what happened to the days that when you bought a Porsche 911 it looked new for 10 years.

the days of the 911 staying the same for more then 6 -7 years I believe have come and gone, reason being is because cars now are more competitive then ever. Did you see the latest news about the nissan gt-r going against the 911? and winning? so porsche has to step up there game

"I just wish they would not update these cars so often, what happened to the days that when you bought a Porsche 911 it looked new for 10 years."
It still does. I know what you mean- but the classic shape of the 911 is still there. In profile, a 911 from 1972 still looks pretty new.
As for the new Turbo... I WANT ONE!
It will probably have DSG, as if it needed it.
