The next-generation Porsche 911, internally called the 998, has begun winter testing and Brenda Priddy got these candids of the venerable rear-drive/rear-engine machine topping up at the local Shell. Earlier reports in some media suggested that this was the 911 Turbo, Priddy says. But she notes the fake side-air intakes in front of the rear wheels and the huge rear wing hiding the smaller spoiler typical of standard 911s to disprove those assumptions. 

Compared to the current model, the front lights on this model stand more upright and the side mirrors have moved from the side window corner to the doorside. Priddy also notes that the rear lights are just translucent stickers made to cover the real taillights. Judging from the quad tailpipes on this prototype, Priddy says this is most likely one of the "S" models.

Watch for the next-generation 911 to feature the same flat-six engine, with upgraded power output and the new PDK dual-clutch gearbox, she says.

	This ABS plastic shock absorber is just one example of many ways to use SEMA's Rapid Prototyping Service to save time and money during product development.

The SEMA Technology Transfer Program is one of the most valuable SEMA manufacturer member benefits, offering exclusive access to more than 42,000 Chrysler, Ford, GM and Scion CAD factory data files, as well as rapid prototyping services that dramatically cut reverse engineering costs and product development cycles.

The SEMA Rapid Prototyping Service can produce an ABS plastic prototype of your design created at a substantially reduced, member-only rate, leading to earlier product validation by eliminating costly traditional casting molds or CNC programming.

Ready Ramp President Cord Bauer is a satisfied user of the Tech Transfer Rapid Prototype Service.

“For the price of a dinner for two, I can test and fine tune my products prior to opening molds, saving me thousands in tooling costs and months of development time. And the parts turn out better."

See the benefits for yourself in this one-and-a-half minute rapid prototyping video.

Save big on time and money—log onto www.sema.org/tech-transfer or call 909/396-0289 and ask for Oscar Muñoz (ext. 211) or Gary Pis (ext. 214).
