Porsche New 911 Turbo
Porsche New 911 Turbo - Since the first thing you will notice about the 2013 Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet in these latest spy shots is the metal roll bar behind the front seats, let us start by pointing out that this is an engineering prototype and that the production model will feature a clean design. With that out of the way, let us see what Porsche is preparing for the new turbocharged Cabriolet model.
With the 911 Turbo we showcased what is technically feasible. Nevertheless, there is always more that can be achieved. Not out of duty, but out of the passion to reach the targets we’ve set for ourselves. That’s why we’ve developed the 911 Turbo S – and given it that little bit extra.
2013 Porsche Macan
2013 Porsche Macan - Porsche has confirmed it intends to produce the Macan, a small sport-utility based on the Audi Q5 platform that will be positioned beneath the larger Cayenne SUV. The Stuttgart-based automaker has provided a few details, including a production date of late-2013, and has released a concept drawing.

2013 Porsche 911 gt3
2013 Porsche 911 gt3 - Development of the ‘991’ generation Porsche 911 GT3 is well underway, with prototypes of the car spotted on numerous occasions near Porsche’s headquarters in Stuttgart and at the Nürburgring and on some of the race track’s surrounding roads.Porsche's latest generation of the 911, the 991, has just recently made its way onto the scene, and, as our 2012 Best Car To Buy winner, it's excellent. But that's "just" the base Carrera and Carrera S so far--the really hot versions, including the Turbo and GT3, are yet to come.
Performance should also be pushed higher thanks to improved efficiencies inside the 3.8-liter flat six that's likely to power it. The current GT3 RS turns out 450 horsepower and weighs in right around 3,000 pounds; we expect the next GT3 to come close to those same marks, with the 2013 GT3 RS moving even farther up the supercar ladder. The car will miss out on the 4.0-liter straight-six engine found in the 997-based GT3 RS 4.0 and instead rely on the 3.8-liter six found in the regular 911 Carrera S though with output raised to around 450 horsepower.
2013 Porsche 911 Club Coupe
2013 Porsche 911 Club Coupe - Porsche built its first model back in 1948 and the first Porsche Club arrived four years later. Today the company is celebrating "60 years of Porsche Clubs" with the unveiling of the special edition Porsche 911 Club Coupe. The model is based on the 911 Carrera S and will be limited to only 13 units. Prices for the US market start at $175.580.
Porsche has worked up a treat to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the first two Porsche Clubs, the first of which was founded by seven gentlemen in Westphalia, Germany in 1952, and the second started by another six gentlemen a few months later. Those few enthusiasts and two organizations have grown into 181,000 members among 640 Porsche Clubs in 75 countries. In honor of those humble beginnings, Porsche has created the 911 Club Coupe.
Using the Carrera S as a base, the Club Coupe gets the Carrera S Powerkit providing an extra 30 horsepower, taking the total to 430 hp and dropping the 0-to-100-kph sprint to 4.0 seconds. The PASM option drops the car by 20 millimeters over its 20-inch Sport Techno rims, and the Sport Design package adds a new front fascia and a ducktail spoiler out back. The work is then coated in Brewster Green paint with an Espresso interior, and finished with glossy script on the doors.
2013 Porsche 911 Targa
2013 Porsche 911 Targa - The 2013 Porsche 911 Targa has been caught by our spy photographers.The Porsche 911 Targa will likely be introduced early next year with sales starting shortly thereafter. Engine options should carryover from the standard model, so expect a 3.4-liter with 350 PS (257 kW / 345 hp) and 390 Nm (288 lb-ft) of torque as well as a 3.8-liter with 400 PS (294 kW / 394 hp) and 440 Nm (324 lb-ft) of torque. Both can be connected to a seven-speed manual or a seven-speed PDK transmission.
The ‘Targa’ version of the latest 991-series Porsche 911 has been spotted testing in prototype form, with engineers from Porsche attempting to disguise the car as a regular convertible model. The soft-top roof fitted to the prototype is a ruse to hide what’s underneath, namely, a fixed center roll bar similar to the one that debuted on the first 911 Targa all the way back in 1967. Other than the roof system, the new Porsche 911 Targa should essentially be the same as the 911 Carrera or Carrera S, depending on whether the sportier option is chosen.
