They won't let the cayman be better than the 911, but they will let another in house mid engine coupe be better.
It seems Porsche is all about making a new model almost every year going into the future.
Whatever they do to the new Z, I would love it to be lighter.
The specs on the cayman turbo is only 350hp on a 2.4L turbo 4. The 911 is is a 3.8L turbo 6 rated @ 500hp. How would it be better? The article did say they'd be using the porsche turbo engine on multiple models so, your point is STRONGLY in the valid area.
