Porsche is putting the finishing touches the next-generation 911 but the model鈥檚 extensive lineup means the company is still updating its existing vehicles. Such is the case for the 911 GT3 RS which is expected to be unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in a few weeks. The facelifted coupe has an evolutionary design but adopts a modestly revised front bumper and slimmer daytime running lights. The styling changes don鈥檛 stop there as the car also features a new hood with two vents that help to cool the braking system without affecting the car鈥檚 aerodynamics. The styling changes at the rear are less noticeable and would likely only stand out to the most diehard fanatics. Regardless, the company installed a new rear bumper and updated taillights. The car also features new wing supports, modestly revised wing tips and a new engine cover which includes an integrated third brake light. Speaking of the engine, the 4.0-liter six-cylinder will reportedly develop 520 PS which is a minor increase of 20 PS. Thanks to the extra power, the updated model should be slightly faster than its predecessor which could accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3.3 seconds.

On all models in the BMW 6 Series, flared wheel arches and a rear-end structure visually stretched by horizontal lines provide a vivid stylistic showcase for the cars鈥?wide track and resultant surefooted handling. This effect is further enhanced by a chrome strip in the bumper trim. The rear apron of the six-cylinder models also features larger surrounds for the exhaust system鈥檚 tailpipe embellishers, whose diameter has been increased from 80 to 90 millimetres. Elsewhere, a newly designed 20-inch multi-spoke variant has been added to the selection of optional light-alloy wheels.
