Facelifted Porsche 911 GT2 Spotted

Today is the day for spyshots! New ones have come out for the Aston Martin Rapide, Aston Martin Vantage, Audi R8 and Mercedes-Benz SL, to name a few.

The one we're covering here is the Porsche 911, a car which is receiving minor updates. Last year, Porsche updated the 911 range.

The GT2 performance series always gets the updates last, and as such is receiving them as Porsche is preparing for the launch of the next-generation 911.

The biggest update to the 911 GT2 is a boost of 20 horsepower, attributed to direct injection technology that was debuted on the updated 911 Turbo and GT3. The boost will bring the car's power output to 550 horsepower.

Porsche might offer its PDK dual clutch unit, in addition to the standard six-speed manual. New performance enhancing features include a titanium exhaust system and expensive carbon-ceramic brakes

Changes beyond those are small, comprised of new front and rear bumper design, with a redesigned rear that includes different exhaust pipes. Altogether, these changes should result in an improved 0-60 time for the GT2. After the GT2's introduction next year, next up will be the next-generation 911. We can't wait to see that!
