why would the C4 be widebody, wouldn't that defeat the purpose of the C4S...

suggest you reevaluate your borrowed speculation.

look at the past 2 generations, and overlap the release schedule to the current time frame of porsche's releases and anyone can get an idea.

Default Borrowed "expertise"

I think it's so funny that people with no inside knowledge of what's actually happening at Porsche feel free to borrow from someone who does have inside information, and then add spurious "embellishment". Why not just go with the flow?

So RSA333 where is your proof that the C4S will be wide bodied? Can you print the actual Porsche release schedule that shows the C4S as wide body? I'm sure if you have it others would be very pleased to see it.

So if this follows past S type, widebody/narrowbody variants, I wonder if there will be a 997 C2 widebody?

I like the 2 wheel drive cars better. They are more fun to control at speed. and the wider the better!

Le Chef-

I work at a Porsche factory as a subcontractor. I don't embellish anything, and if I do pass along information from others posts - I acknowledge them - I didn't even mention a C4 in any of my posts.

Go back to cooking...

Huh??? If you want to be insulting try harder. That's just a little tacky.

So I guess I shouldn't be surprised by your lack of reading skills (re-read my post, - no mention of the C4 either) but not by your lack of acknowledgement of borrowing from RC's post. Save yourself the bother and just enter the url to the real source next time. That way you get more time to practice your reading skills.
