Facelifts for Porsche 911 Carrera and Turbo Models Play in the Snow

With all the technical details we have to bring you guys in our stories, the magic of the photos themselves is sometimes lost. However, this picture changes everything. It opens your eyes to the epic arctic wilderness that's currently home to dozens of test prototypes gathered from across Europe.

German engineers are working on a facelift for a number of 911 models, including the coupes, convertibles and even the Turbo. These are among the first images of the whole test convoy of cars together.

Porsche should update the 911 family four years after the first Carrera was revealed, so a debut is likely to take place in 2015. Changes will affect the front and rear bumpers, taillights and DRL bars.

Unfortunately, when it comes to the engines, all we can offer you is speculation. Porsche is without a doubt working on smaller turbocharged engines to improve fuel efficiency, but we don't know if they'll be ready by next year. The current 911's architecture could survive and evolve over a period of up to 15 year, through two generations, so there really is no hurry here.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
