The 991.2 Porsche 911 is due to be revealed at the Frankfurt Auto Show in September, but an undisguised model was spotted lapping the Nürburgring industry pool session yesterday. And here it is!

You’ll notice the revised styling at the front compared with the first gen 991 911 launched in 2011. Also, at the rear there is new rear lights as well as a new twin exhaust arrangement.

Is that exhaust layout the first tangible signs of the new 2.7 litre turbocharged four-cylinder?

UPDATE 22 July: New video has been added below.

Won’t be the flat-four (that’s reserved for the Boxster/Cayman twins). The base 911 will be a twin-turbo 2.9 flat-six.

Of course, right you are on the cylinder count.

Although, Walter Rohrl is on record as saying the Carrera will be a 2.7L turbo and the S will be a 3.0L turbo.
