The Boxster Cayman is not a serious player until they do forced induction and 400 HP. Porsche has the new turbo V6. Pop it in the Cayman and we have a competition. The enthusiast nonsense of "you should be happy with no torque" is not helping them sell any cars. It's the world's most overbuilt chassis for the world's most underpowered car. They should make it a hybrid if it's going to be slow.

Adding an extra 10 HP to a Cayman is an insult.

Pop the hood on the 2014 Porsche Panamera 4S and there it is, bold as brass, a V6. Now, this isn't any normal V6 mind you. It's a twin-turbocharged, direct-injected beast of a mill that churns out 420 horsepower and 384 pound-feet of torque available from 1,750 rpm.
