The 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 is Lighter and Still Offering Bold Style

— August 29, 2012 — Autos
Featuring a brand new all-wheel drive system, the 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 and 4S are set to make their debut at the Paris auto show come September. The revamped car comes equipped with Porsche's latest Traction Management system, providing drivers a smoother and more comfortable ride.

Weighting in 143 pounds lighter than the previous model, the Carrera is still looking mighty fine despite its trimmed-down physique. The back has been widened and includes a set of all-LED taillights that give those behind it a devilish smile. The lineup comes in both the coupe and convertible model, with a sliding glass sunroof option available for the coupe.

Able to go from zero to 62 mph in 4.1 seconds, the 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 is one speedy roadster with looks that could kill.
