Haha...probably one of my grumpy old man moods kicking in:
I want 6 cylinders (not 4 or 8, okay flat 12 from the 917 would be fine as well), flat, no turbo and a manual transmission. Yes, I love the smell of gas in the morning!
I guess we are being abandoned like the air cooled guys

The reasons are totally comprehensible, why they need to switch to pdk completely, as only a handfull of years are left for combustion engines in the EU anyways (talking about new cars).
A handshifted e718 would be a solution, come on Porsche, there are a million reasons for it. And a few more suppliers could survive that EU EV-move to boot.
