Wasn't the 550 a mid-engine, 4 cyl roadster? It seems the new '718' would be more closely related than the 6 cyl 986.

Lots of Porsche fans have been clamoring lately for a return to the 'basics'...manual transmission, lower weight, less electronic driving aids, etc. The turbo aside, perhaps they have a chance to do just that with this car. I hope they get it right, and I hope I can afford one in 2018.
