Does anybody really believe NA will totally disappear? The latest PCA interviews the AG GT3 cars head and he says no way. Also, GT Porsche magazine says the new engine works will have the NA's for base 911's. Don't worry the NA's are staying.

of headroom left (especially given the Manthey/Sharkwerks experience at 4.1+ displacement)
I doubt any of the other 911 models will remain N.A....

I'm sure that for the GT3/4 they will remain N.A, but question is how much more BHP can be extracted from a flat-6, at 4.0L 500 bhp I dont see a lot

I've got a confirmed allocation for a mid/ late June build on a 2016 GTS coupe. Order locks in late May. The TT is epic and has torque like a monster but I just don't find the PDK as engaging as a manual, so I'm going back to a stick.

I have a mid September build date for my PTS Mexico Blue GTS..
From what I have heard the GTS build will run pretty much to the end of year, over lapping the building of the 991.2 for a couple of months.

until either a replacement model is launched or the production comes to and end (e.g: GT3)

From the moment when the .2 production commences, and then during the period of overlap with the .1, it is possible that some of the new .2 features will show up in the .1. I think that if any .1 gets something new then it will be this very last batch of .1 cars that are produced after .2 production starts.
For example, I can’t imagine that Porsche would want two versions of the PDK shifter on the production line: the current +/- one and the proposed new -/+ version.
