I have heard the Cayenne motor in a 944 rumor too. Just have not seen proof.

Since I have both I have done some basic measuring and think it may actually be possible.

made MY f_cking day...........



that engine is better tethered to that car than many a 944 in the flesh -- with their assigned companions rattling on in their respective bays.







and helped get the post count up.

944 powered Cayenne? To each his own, haha but I thought someone had lost their mind. It would be interesting, but eh. Haha, too funny.

You should change the thread title to "Spy shots of rear engined 951 powered Cayenne".

Now if we are going to talk about dream swaps let put the Cayanne Turbo engine in a 944. Now that would move.
