We are closing in on the Frankfurt Motor Show and are  hearing about many a beauty waiting to drive down the ramp. Even before the even is set to begin, the spies have snapped images of the 2012 Porsche 911 – sans any camouflage.

If you observe the car’s exterior, you get to understand this edition of Porsche sports a front fascia that reminds you of the current model.

Besides, the car also has much number of new tweaks including new door mirrors, a smaller greenhouse, svelte tail-lights and a restyled posterior.

There are small differences incorporated into the vehicle’s built as well. The new edition is almost 2.5 inches (6.4 cm) wider than the existing model and drives on a wheelbase that has increased up to approximately 4 inches (10.2 cm).

Performance specifications remain same; the car will most likely sport a 3.4-liter flat-six engine with 350 PS (257 kW / 345 hp. There are also rumors that a Turbo version will deliver an output of around 550 PS (405 kW / 542 hp).

You can choose between a seven-speed manual or an optional seven-speed PDK to pair with the engine, irrespective of your choice of power trains. Tell us what you feel.
