I beg to differ. The power was intentionally left out of the 3.2 for marketing reasons... My 3.4 986 humiliates non-gt3 996s at autoxs

The lack of power wasnt from a lack of funding, it was done intentionally to keep a gap between the 911 and the Boxster. Equal power ususally results in the 911 having its ass handed to it by a boxster
