Default Porsche brings back the "GTS" designation

I just saw an ad from Porsche (A very good 15 sec spot BTW) showing off the new Cayenne GTS.

I never thought that designation would ever appear again.

Looking at the website now, it appears you can finally get a V8 Cayenne with a manual transmission. If anyone was looking for that in their grocery getter.

They might be thinking more more about 924 Carrera GTS than 928 GTS when selecting that name. Im waiting for 2D Panamera GTS before geting too exited about name reuse.

Well the transmission makes me curious. Obviously this is will be one of the drivetrain options for the Panamera. Funny the 6 speed would appear with a transfer case and in a cayenne first before though.
