leave the flat-6 in the 911 series and put the inline 4 in the box/cayman. sound move - same as the 924/944/968 and the 914 before it. want a 6 cyl roadster? get a 911 cabrio. if they don't mess too much with the engine and transmission mount locations then aftermarket swaps and limited editions from the factory (like the 914-6) remain an option. are they handicapping their best-handling car with an inline 4 just for the sake of creating a tiered marketing approach? all i can say is that i'd take a 400 hp cayman at the track any day of the week, turbo or not (and find a lot more inexpensive hp tuning a turbo engine than a NA flat six).
