So you think putting an engine at the extreme rear of the car is good for handling then. Explain.

Let's put it another way, if Porsche ever dropped one of their high-end engines into a Cayman it would not only smoke any 911 variant it would piss off the 911 fanbois...which is exactly why they've never done it.

EDIT: enough of this, keep it on-topic, create a 911 thread, I'll be glad to participate.

I agree with him, the engine is not in the best postion it can be, i believe the Zed does look better. And yes the Porsche does look like it was designed 50 years ago, can't they come up with a new shape. So what the **** are you talking about.

Because they got it right from the start. The 911 shape is an evolution.

Can't they come up with a new shape? Why did Nissan have to go back and source lines from the 240 for the 370?
