Back in June we published a first ride of the 2012 Porsche 911. The car was a prototype undergoing final testing in South Africa and we were allowed to tag along on the adventure for a short while.
As it turns out, and as you'd expect, South Africa was but one of the stops Porsche made trying to find the most horrible climates in which to test the new 911. According to the description, "Our engineers took the car on the most demanding road trips imaginable while in the most punishing of climates. They pushed the test vehicles to operating extreme months before the cars global debut. Why? to guarantee that the seventh-generation 2012 Carrera 911 will perform to Porsche Standards on the German Autobahn, interstate highway in the U.S. and anywhere else a car's owner might be." We want to be on that groomed snow track, thanks.
