Quite a day for future Porsche models as Carscoop reader Toldi sent in three videos showing two lightly camouflaged prototypes of the facelifted Panamera sports sedan and the all-new Cayman coupe.
We’ll begin with the updated Panamera that receives a mid-life makeover for the 2013 model year. As evidenced by the cleverly placed disguise, both ends of Porsche’s second best-seller after the Cayenne SUV will be redesigned to offer the Panamera a fresher look that’s more in line with the new 911.
Some minor improvements to the existing engine lineup and chassis are also to be expected. The 2013 Panamera will break cover sometime in the coming auto show season.
The other Porsche model spied on film by Toldi is the second generation of the Cayman, which is the hardtop coupe version of the latest Boxster. While the new Cayman will grow a few inches in length, thus boosting passenger and luggage space, it will also be lighter as well as more powerful than the outgoing model.
On the styling front, it appears that the shape of the top will be more integrated into the coupe’s design.
The new Cayman will be launched onto the market by spring of 2013.
Thanks to Toldi for the video scoops!
