Walter Röhrl speaks on turbos.

Well the carrera is getting a 2.7 turbo and the S is getting 3.0 turbo. The mid engine models get 4 cylinder turbos and Röhrl says quote

"At least it's not a four-cylinder turbo like in the next Boxster. That sounds like a Volkswagen Beetle, I'm not kidding you! I tell the guys, 'You're joking with this sound, right?' But they just say they are working on it. I'm sure they will get it right."

That's unnerving. He also states that he bought a boxster spyder as there will be no more cars like that. This is sad for the new cars, but I smell appreciation.
