Interesting tidbits, what does everyone think? Seems, different markets will get different drivetrains.....

Same article as what was in Evo. Lots of qualifiers and speculation. Nothing to suggest the end of the turbo 4, but good chance Porsche will also offer a detuned flat 6 for extra dollars and little if any performance gain, for those that want to pay more for the better sound.

U Turn on 6cylinders
Symptomatic on VW management incompetence
Reading the Rennlisters voice would have saved for them a lot of money

Same things will happen with 992 despite the mods

As Kimi Raikkonen says, we will see. Until then its just two camps and their wishful thinking.
