SPY SHOTS : 2010 Porsche 911 Turbo , spotted at the 'Ring

A couple of days ago , we saw the face-lifted 911 GT3 . Today , we got the face-lifted 911 Turbo to cover . Like the GT3 , the exterior seems to be finished , like new rear bumpers , a new headlight layout and new taillights . And like the GT3 , the Turbo was spotted testing at the Nurburgring .
But unlike the GT3 , Porsche has to do alot of more work with the Turbo . First , by fitting a new direct-injection 3.8L flat-6 with twin turbos with expected 20 hp more than the current . So 500 hp in result . Then , as every generation of Trubo comes , a new 4-wheel drive system should come along . So this is expected to have some enhancements to the drive system . And as you can see from the pictures , the carbon-brakes are huge and "glow" when you use hard .

So now it seems the Turbo is ready to get fighting with its biggest nemesis , the Nissan GTR . We'll know who'll win the " 'Ring Fight " when Porsche debuts it at the Detroit Auto Show next January .
