any new engine that will opend the door to the possibility of being beaten by a Domestic roadster is a mistake. Their just handing the competition marketing gold.
"faster than a Porsche Boxster" bla bla bla.
If you're going to charge more $$$$ over similar cars at least make sure the car has enough power to put away the competition.

The last issue of Excellence has the Chief of Porsche Motorsports programs basically saying that there are no plans to give the Cayman any prominence in racing. It sounded kind of funny "The 911 will continue to be zee top of the zee top. We could make it a mid engine 911 because we don't make use of the backseat in racing but we will continue with zee engine in the zee back".

Bad news for more power in Cayman and Boxster.
