Windymiller Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 (edited) Heard about this at Anglesey track day yesterday, and found this link: https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.automobilemag.com/news/porsche-718-cayman-boxster-flat-six-cylinder-engine-gts/amp/ seems like ‘old’ news, but not heard it previously. Anyone on here aware? If its true / accurate then perhaps Porsche have considered the flat-4 turbos not to have been a commercial success? 🤔 Edited May 19, 2019 by Windymiller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bushman Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 heard the same from some guys at work, they follow the motoring press more than I do. I did read that the new GT4 will retain a F6 4 litre and a lot of them are pre-sold so maybe the BD guys at Porsche have been keeping notes.

freedman Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Its going to be a 6 cylinder model based on the standard 718 platform, so nice, but not special enough IMO 718 GT4 will use the GT chassis, not 100% on the engine yet but looks like it will be available with PDK unlike the current GT4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike3105 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 I was at the Nurburgring last week and the two GT4 mules were both using turbo'd engines. I also went to the Porsche Factory and saw a facelift 718 Boxster (US Market) coming off the production line. It had twin exhausts similar to a BMW 335i distance apart on a full width black plastic bumper. Was interesting to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
