Also some say that this is in part making way for the Porsche 988 or some sort of mid engine Ferrari competitor with the 911 going a little soft. McLaren is pushing to compete with the sports series the r8 and 458-now 488 just got updated so it would make sense for Porsche to come out with something around now.
Maybe a downmarket hybrid sports car sold around 150k to 200k, but there has been talk of a mid flat engine Porsche with possibly a flat 8 for a while.

Interesting. The Boxster/Cayman is the best drivers car that Porsche make, and the 911 would be better off as a GT in the line up. A high end mid engine car permanently in the line up, makes sense and I'd love to see it not that I'm likely ever to own one. I called in at my local Porsche dealer yesterday, and there are a few 981 Boxster's left but no manual ones in Australia, so I'm out of luck
I'm hoping that Porsche will come to their senses with the engine in Boxster and the next one will sound more like this.
