Death Valley is a popular place for car manufacturers to test their models in development/prior to release, while there we saw Hyundai testing a heavily disguised SUV and a convoy of Porsches.
Above is the 2006 Porsche 911 (Model Code 997). Note round headlights disguised to look like those of the current model.
The disguise is more noticable in the Turbo Model, below. The Turbo has a deeper grill and air vents for the rear brakes. Less noticable is the new front bumper with LED parking lights in a horizontal bar through the air intake. The fog lights are moved to the corners of the bumpers.
The testers were not happy with me taking the photos, though photos of these cars are already on the web, (exclusive first photos of these cars would be valuable, - I had no takers, in fact the legendary Brenda Priddy got there before I did).
