Interestingly, (im sure everyone knows this but I just started learning about Caymans) I just read an article that discussed the flat 4 turbo being created for the Chinese market to avoid the tax/penalty issue he is referring to...im sure there are other reasons as well, like emission requirements of the fleet etc...
