Porsche is bound and determined to milk its redesigned 2012 Porsche 911 for all its worth, apparently, starting the drip feed of teasers more than two months ahead of its Frankfurt debut. We aren't complaining, though. Check out the video below to see what little of the 991 Porsche 911 they'll give us for now--though the exterior shots are basically what we've seen in our spy photos and spy video. You do get a hint of the interior and a few quick bursts of its exhaust note, though, so it's worth the 1:22 run time.

Power from the 6.2-liter naturally-aspirated V-8 is up 30 horsepower from the regular C63 AMG, rating 487 horsepower with the base package and 517 horsepower with the Performance Package. In the standard C63, 0-60 mph takes 4.3 seconds with the 487-horsepower Performance Package option, so we expect the Black Series to...
