All speculation just like this thread. Did you buy yours to drive or to speculate?

Agreed. 981-1 GT4 was a phenomenal value as a new car. Whatever happens after that cannot be predicted, and definitely isn't worth missing the miles of fun in the meantime.

However, I don't see GT4 values "tanking" for two reasons: 1) The car is an instant cult car, and sold like it. 2) The first GT4 provided a lot of value for money, and if the next one goes up 10k, 20k, or 30k, that may actually serve to protect the value of the original issue cars. We'll see.
So, up, down, hold...who knows? The best advice is always the same: Enjoy your GT4. Someday, long after it's gone, you're never gonna say "I wish I hadn't put so many miles on that Porsche."

Also very curious about TPC's intake plenum, as TPC has done some trick stuff in the past. Proper gears would probably close the rest of the gap to making the existing engine feel a lot more special. So would a supercharger. TPC's supercharged 993 was pretty amazing, as were Ruf's supercharged 987s.

Finally, a hardcore version of the 718 Cayman, due to be badged 718 Cayman GT4 RS, and rumoured to also use a normally-aspirated 4-litre engine, likely the same unit that will power the forthcoming 911 GT3. The GT4 RS would become the fastest Cayman to date and take much of its inspiration from the 2015 Cayman GT4 and also be offered with a manual gearbox. However, at this time Porsche wont confirm if the GT4 RS will make production.

As I posted in the GT3 thread, AMG had the same 6.2 V8 engine at various states of tune in the C63, E63, S63, and the SLS (as well as the black series versions). There was more than 100HP variability from top to bottom.
My vote is that Porsche go with a common 4.0 NA platform for GT3/GT4 and run various tune levels on it for the different cars.

I propose someone should start a thread I have not seen in a long long time on Rennlist : " What do you think will happen to the GT4/GT3/RS values once the new model comes out? "

A GT4 RS with the GT3 engine will start in the $135,000 range. I would not worry about the GT4 values.
A 981.2 GT4 with 30-40- more HP and some fine tuning for $ 15,000 more would hurt their values
