Strangely enough, this article ties in well with the prior post regarding Porsche's CEO describing their future target market.
But don't forget this is not just Porsche but the whole car industry is moving in that direction. Many completely removing manual transmission option, and continue to grow in size and weight with more useless electronic gizmos.

There's no lightweight sports car out there anymore save Lotus Elise which is getting discontinued, and Mazda Miata.

Perhaps we should just look forward to the 2700lbs, 200hp Scion FRZ / Subaru BRZ.
