Some other Euros comment that the 718 is a "compliance" car .Porsche succumbed to extrapolating the rise in fuel prices and ever tightening emissions rules. A 'Subaru WRX' engine was the logical choice for that (false) scenario. The basic constraints were totally Euro oriented which doesn't translate so well here.
The interesting question is -how long before a premium priced 6cylinder version comes? And before you say "NEVER" remember tht the Euros do eventually get persuaded by the size of the market in the USA. BMW ,Mercedes,Jaguar were all reluctant and late converts to v8 engines instead of the traditional straight 6's.
Just stirring the pot :-).
