NFS The Run Featuring 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera S with 500 hp

You could visit the upcoming Frankfurt Auto Show in order to meet the 2012 Porsche 911 in person. Or you could raise a lot of money and buy the car. However, you might have to wait for that to happen, so what could you be doing meanwhile?
Well, why not play the latest title in the Need for Speed series, "The Run"?

There are always one thousand reasons to play NFS (unless you prefer simulators, of course), and here is an extra one: doing so will allow you to get behind the wheel of the 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera S.

We do have one question though: Electronic Arts' Youtube description of the video says something like "500 horsepower and 800 lbs of torque". Last time we checked, the (real) car had 400hp and much less torque. Do they know something we don't?
