Just make the damn things lighter...even with no other changes every aspect will improve just by default..

Latest is not always greatest. But no matter what Porsche does, there will be a line out the door.

Make fewer, but find a way to ensure that everyone who wants one - gets one ;-) without any ADM :-)

-some kind of slide-slip control system like Ferrari which allows for computer-aided sideways action
-lighter-weight structure
-semi-active suspension like McLaren's
-semi-hydraulic steering like mclaren
-movable aero
(How much more am I allowed to ask Santa?)

More weight is definitely not the best direction for the GT3/rs platform...Get back to 2850-2900 lbs and keep the power close to where it is, Id even give up revs...8250 was more than enough from the 996 gt3...

Then a carbon tub it is. If Alpha can pull it off on the 4c, and mclaren...on well everything then I’d expect the highest performing and most exotic 911 to do the same.

That would be pretty cool. Might make the price of the car and insurance both go up pretty high though (I think CF tubs are hard/impossible to repair - good hit may require a new car).
Would be great for those who like Speedsters and other convertibles, as the CF tub makes the loss of the roof have far less impact to the stiffness of the chassis (ala McLaren).
