Milt I do agree with your comments , the 911 is a great GT machine but no longer a true sports car . Porsche has tried their best to keep it a sports car AND have all the safety and electronic gizmos that the competition offers but that is a very difficult thing to do . Enter the Cayman and Boxster which in my opinion are sports cars . But I think in the not too distant future Porsche will have to offer as an option the 6 cylinder engine . Have the turbo 4 as the base engine but offer the 6 and let the sales figures determine the path forward . I love my 6 ( far from stock ) and would never give it up for a 4 .
