Andreas Preuninger + Henry Catchpole


AP says GT4/Spyder engine will be used in other applications as well, I'm hoping for a Carrera T that uses this engine.

PDK will be available later in the model cycle.

OPF is not such a big deal as it was made to be

 

Also AP mentioned they will attempt to meet demand, this time around. Which is hopefully a good sign on availability and no ADM for later next year.

 

Official then, direct from AP...PDK is comming next year!!!!

 

He also said they’re ride height adjustable!

 

Anything done about the 981 failing strut towers, especially on lowered cars?

 

Unclear at this point, he certainly didn’t bring it up.

 

No different from the 981.

He wouldn't. That would be like an open admission by PAG considering they have denied warranty on those.

 

I stand corrected. Spoke with my dealer yesterday and indeed they don’t have dates. I got it mixed up with a 992 allocation, which will indeed be delivered in the fall. I’m sorry for the misinformation here.

 

+1 not as throaty as the 981, a little higher pitch. I do still like it. Sounds a little more old school

 

718 GT4s in other colors...


RY, Miami Blue, Guards Red, Ultraviolet?, White




white with gold

 

Likely see some sort of non-GT Cayman with this engine slot between GTS($80k) and GT4($99k).

More importantly he said this normally aspirated 4.0L is good for current and future emisson regulations.

 

Thanks for postig. That looks like purple I agree. Any other pics of these cars?

 

purple or blue?
What country?
Scotland w/drives and reviews coming next week?

 

Its Gentian blue metallic from the 992 offerings

 

My guess is that this engine will be used in future 992 models.....4.0L turbo? Who knows, but I would find it strange to used it on a water-down GT4.
AP can now brag about a bespoke engine in the GT4/Spyder (not a parts bin special anymore)...that's until they use it on other models! But this time the GT4 got it first.....
