Hot on the heels of the all-new Porsche 911 and its Carrera and Carrera S variants, the German sports car manufacturer will introduce the 2012 Porsche 911 Cabriolet at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit (January 9-22, 2012).
While the 911 Coupé is scheduled to hit showrooms in February, the 911 Cabrio will pop in a few months later, right on time for summer.
Porsche, which purposefully bypassed the NAIAS in recent years, now insists on the importance of the US market.
“Detroit was deliberately chosen for the world premiere of the new 911 Cabrio because the USA is far and away our largest 911 Cabrio market,” said Bernhard Maier, Porsche AG Board of Management Member for Sales and Marketing.
The complete specs and prices will be announced at a later date.
