MUNICH -- Porsche will introduce its next-generation 911 at the Paris auto show in late September. Sales of the current 911 have been declining so Porsche has relied on a flurry of special editions to maintain interest in its flagship model.
The new car, code-named 997, reverses some of its predecessor's styling touches, which were not welcomed by customers. The changes include more-traditional headlights with separate turn signals.
The rear lights will also be changed. The basic shape of the body will remain close to the current 911. Although the car keeps its engine in the rear, large air ducts in the front are added to give it a more aggressive face.
