A facelifted Porsche 911 Turbo? Already?

Ben Pulman 

Oh yes. Porsche never seems to stop fettling the 911 and although it’s only been just more a year since we drove the Turbo, Porsche is already working on a facelift.

As with most updates these days there’ll be more power, more torque, better fuel consumption, and lower emissions. But the biggest news is that the Turbo should finally have Porsche’s new twin-clutch gearbox. Unfortunately, you’ll get none of this until 2009.

Porsche is continuing its evolutionary styling with the facelifted 911 Turbo. The only obvious changes are at the rear with curvier lights. This is in line with tweaks being made to all of Porsche’s sports cars, from 911 to Cayman, via Boxster.

The other changes are a tidier rear bumper and exhaust outlet giving the Turbo’s rear a more cohesive look.

Don’t expect this facelifted 911 Turbo to appear until 2009 at the earliest, probably at the Geneva Motor Show.
