Porsche is getting to reveal a facelifted version of its 911 later this year. AutoCar spies recently caught the next-generation version of the most extreme 911, the GT3 RS, testing at the Nurburgring.

The updated and facelifted 911 will be unveiled later this summer, while the next-generation GT3 RS will go on sale next year. Subtle styling changes have been made to the front and rear bumper. The 3.6 liter 6-cylinder engine is expected to produce an extra 40-hp than the current GT3 RS, bringing the total to more than 450-hp.

The next-generation Porsche GT3 will also get Porsche’s new 7-speed dual-clutch transmission with paddle shifting. Other changes include LED brake lighta and LED driving lights.

For fun purposes check out the promo video to the current GT3 RS.
