Spy Shots: New 2013 Porsche Cayman S Pictured Inside and Out


Next up on Porsche's product menu for 2012 is the introduction of the all-new, second-generation Cayman coupe, which is the closed roof variant of the latest Boxster roadster.

Talking about the roof that is the primary difference between the two models, our latest scoop pictures give us a very clear view of its styling.

If you take a close look at the photos of the current and next generation of the Cayman that we've added below, you'll see that in the new model, the shape of the top looks more integrated into the car's design and less of an afterthought.

SPIED: New Porsche 911 Turbo Pops Into our Radar


For the past 38 years, all generations of the 911 include at least one Turbo variant, and the most recent iteration of Porsche's iconic sports car with the internal designation 991 will be no different.

Stuttgart's engineers have been meticulously working on the development of the all-new 911 Turbo for quite some time now and it shouldn't be long before it makes its official appearance.

Like the outgoing 997 Turbo, the top version of the 991 series will feature an all-wheel drive system to keep things civilized, while motivation will once again be provided by a 3.8-liter flat-six with diesel-style variable turbine geometry turbochargers, which should be good for around 520-horses in normal trim and close to 550-ponies in S Turbo flavor.

New 2013 Porsche Cayman Coupe Digitally Imagined


The official presentation of all-new Porsche Boxster roadster earlier this month afforded us a pretty good idea of what it's coupe sibling, the new Cayman, will look like, both inside and out.

There is of course a matter of proportions and the shape of the tin top, but that too can be solved with a little bit of imagination along with some help from the numerous spy shots that have circulated around the internet the last year.

SCOOP: Facelifted Porsche Panamera Makes Another Appearance


It’s a very busy time for Porsche as the world's bestselling sports car brand has several new models in store for us including the soon-to-be launched Boxster roadster, the next generation of the Cayman coupe, the production version of the 918 Spyder and the all-new Cajun compact crossover.

And that's not all as Porsche is also working on a facelift for the Panamera sports sedan that has been captured once again by our team of spy photographers during some winter testing in Europe.

The parts of the car that are wrapped in camouflage include the entire front end and the rear bumper, therefore indicating where the styling changes will take place.

Of course, Porsche being Porsche, don't anticipate any shocking alterations just newly designed bumpers and headlamps that will freshen up the Panamera's looks and bring it in line with more recent models like the Boxster.

Spied: 2013 Porsche Cayman Snagged on Video in Stuttgart


We've scooped prototypes of the new Cayman before (see here) but YouTube user "DrGumoLunatic" was able to film the closed-top sibling of the 2013 Boxster roadster at a stop light in the German city of Stuttgart, which is the home town of Porsche.

After seeing the roadster model, we more or less know what to expect on the styling front (both inside and out) while the same goes for the rest of the changes including the new lightweight aluminum body and the improved flat six engines.

It shouldn’t be long before Porsche does reveal the Cayman, but in the meantime, make the jump to watch and hear the coupe model in the video the follows.

SPIED: Porsche's New Cajun SUV Plays Hide and Seek Under Audi Q5 Skin


Porsche is continuing the development of its much-anticipated Cajun compact SUV with testing now taking place in the snow-covered areas of northern Sweden.

If you're wondering what's the deal with the modified body of the Audi Q5, being that the two crossover models will share their platform and key hardware including engines, steering, transmission, axles and even Audi's Quattro four-wheel-drive system, Porsche engineers are using these early test mules to evaluate the Cajun's riding gear.

Spy Video: The Sights and Sounds of the 2013 Porsche 911 Turbo Convertible


Want to see the upcoming 2013 Porsche 911 Turbo in some live action? Here's our first video of the convertible model filmed while Stuttgart's engineers were flogging a lightly camouflaged prototype around the Nürburgring test track.

The quad tail pipes seen on the test car suggest that it may be the more potent Turbo S model equipped with an upgraded version of the turbocharged flat-six producing an estimated output of around 550-horses.

Convoy of 2013 Porsche 911 Turbo and Cabrio, Cayman and Boxster Prototypes Filmed in San Francisco


It’s not every day that you get to see a parade of subtly camouflaged Porsche prototypes parked one behind the other on the streets let alone away from Germany and in San Francisco.

If you watch the two videos posted after the break, you will see the new generations of the 911 Convertible, 911 Turbo, Cayman coupe and Boxster roadster, none of which have been revealed yet.

Our best guess is that Porsche held a special driving event either for journalists or North American dealers (perhaps both).

U SPY: New 2013 Porsche Boxster Spotted Cruising in Los Angeles


Even though you have more chances to spot a prototype model of a future Porsche model doing the rounds at the Nürburgring racetrack than anywhere else, the Germans try out their cars in many countries around the world, including of course, the U.S.

Carscoop reader Alex Ranarivelo snapped this lightly camouflaged 2013 Porsche Boxster with Michigan license plates rolling around in Los Angeles.

New Porsche 911: So, What Else has Stuttgart in Store for us?


Less than a month ago, Porsche unveiled one of the world’s worst kept secrets: the brand-new, 911 in Carrera and Carrera S versions. As usual, the coupe versions are just the beginning. Porsche may be criticized for carefully simply updating its classic model’s looks with each generation, instead of presenting something different, but apparently that’s what its customers want.

Even its most vehement detractors, however, cannot deny that the Weissach carmaker gradually rolls out many versions of the 911, which cover every niche of its segment –and then some… So read on to see how Porsche’s 48-year old sports car will evolve in the near future.
