The new Porsche 911 Targa was introduced earlier this year at the North American International Auto Show but the German company is already testing the facelift model.

Expected to debut next year, the revised 911 Targa comes with revised bumpers, side skirts, new LED headlight, larger air intakes and improved taillights. Of course, you should not expect any major tweaks as this is just a facelift model.
