There is no way I'd ever buy a Porsche with a flat 4 in it, they belong in Subaru's. I happen to have a Subaru as well, and that engine will not sound right in a Porsche. I think they'll lose a lot of Boxster customers if they do that, but maybe they're hoping they will buy a 911 instead. Plus side is it won't harm the collectability or price of real Boxsters like the 986.
