Things could get a little sticky for the 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 and 4S. In a good way, though. With the improved active all-wheel drive system PTM (Porsche Traction Management), the new 911 is quicker, has better handling, and shed sound pounds. The car will be launched in four types: the 911 Carrera 4 and 911 Carrera 4S, with each coming with the option beteween a Coupé and Cabriolet. 

It will have a 7-speed manual gearbox standard coupled with a 3.8-litre rear-mounted 400hp boxer engine in the 4S. That means 0-62 in 4.1 and a top speed of 186. If you want to see these beauties in person, the first public appearance will come at the Paris International Auto Show.
