Ha cool I got name-checked in the credits because I asked a question! Looks like the marketing dept decided which questions he would answer - basically those that would give AP a platform to wax lyrical about the GT products. One notable exception, however, was the GT4 RS question and he clearly says it's one of the options they are considering but they are not working on it and don't expect it next year.

You can tell AP is a good guy and huge Porsche fan. Shines through in all his interviews. He likes atmospheric engines, the higher revving the better - hint at higher revving GT3 RS??

Porsche is very lucky to have AP. So much heart. That's what these cars are about. Heart and emotions. Once you mix your head into the equation the soul is lost. You could see it in his tired eyes. So much passion.

Give AP a week of vacation. Looks like he needs after Geneva.

This makes sense, a 991.2 Turbo S E-Hybrid 700hp+ or maybe they'll wait till the 992 for that car

With all the special editions (thanks VW!) I could see them coming up down the line with a street legal 911RSR "mid engine" and the usual 911 lineup staying in tact.
the 992 Porsche will most likely have a hybrid option.
The new platform will be a little more mid engine to allow fitment.

Yes, car will be a LE 991 Turbo S. Nothing special. Think 991 Endurance Edition.

If my memory serves me right, 605 will be a key number for the LE car.

Cosmetically and material wise, the LE car will surprise many.
