did you read near the bottom, AGAIN porsche are going to hold back the power so it wont beat the 911. I mean i wouldnt mind paying a little extra for more power. Lets face it if the boxster out performed the 996 who would buy a 996?

Folks who want a 4 door sedan would still buy a 996. Especially compared to a stiffly sprung smaller car without air conditioning, cruise control or advanced stereo options.
The only market that a club sport Boxster threatens is a 996 cup racer. If there is room for GT2 and GT3, there should be room for a Boxster based GTS.
IMHO - If GTS is a full blown track car, all that is gained in reducing horsepower is reduced customer demand.
