Porsche to rename Boxster/Cayman to 718

[Porsche9]

Don't like the 4 cylinder just keep what you got and rebuild it when the time comes. If you like big NA engines then you can increase the size of your engine at the time of rebuild.

As much as I like NA engines they eventually will go away as they pollute too much. The last week the air here in Phoenix has been crap (we get a inversion layer that holds the pollution down) and my lungs can feel it plus the CO2 isn't doing the world any good. One day the turbo charged engine will go away too replaced by a electric motor. Enjoy it while it lasts.

Don't feel guilty about your engine, C02 is good for plant life and the planet. Once the religion of global climate catastrophe doomsday dies down, bigger engines will make a come back. Luckily there's plenty of oil left as well. Hooray!

The 718 sounds like Porsches take on the MX5, back to basics. I like the idea, shame about the engine.

Put your tinfoil hat back on and return to the kiddie table. Those of us that are actually qualified to address the bigger issues will do so.

You should really avoid the conspiracy theory websites.

It is precisely comments like these that have created the PC correct, no discussion, polarization that is all too prevalent in this nation today. What next? Call him racist?Global warming, cooling, climate change or whatever narrative fits into the current fear mongering is certainly not proven to any degree of certainty and is being driven by exactly the wrong mechanism, Politics? While we all know that we need to convert eventually from a fossil fuel economy, it needs to be done by the private sector and not the government which is purely control/ greed motivated enforced by what the non political EPA. How's that new Government healthcare working? I'm sure I'll get piled on after threads such as Bullying, Oil and filters etc!! I even read a simple thread which seems to have died last night when some PC person decided to get Offended for all his Corvette friends who never use cheap tires. Unbelievable. Particle wave I must say I am surprised by some of your latest posts, I very much appreciate the things you do on and for this forum. O would think you should be very happy since your pal Mr. Musk should do very well with the Paris circus act. But don't worry they're so smart they are going to keep global warming less than 1.5 C. Please. :ah:

Yes the environment is going bad, but banning every car wouldn't do much. The damage is done.

Focus on the container ships that bring over everything on the shelf at wal mart before you restrict my low production garage queen sports cars.

Oooh, the zealotry is strong in this one!
I'm not going to with you who is 'more qualified' to judge the 'important issues'
I have better things to do than waste time on that

If you're so worried, maybe sell your Boxster and buy a bicycle ��
