Porsche is notoriously conservative. The Panamera Turbo had a claimed 4.1 0-60 and is running 3.3 and 3.4 here. New Cayman S/Boxster S with PDK from Porsche 4.9 with real life tests getting 4.1.

Prediction: sub 4 0-60. I did not see anything about transmission choices....PDK is available?

60ish is sure more easy to swallow than the 80K I read or thought I read.

What am I missing regarding it being more than the Boxster S? The options list would seem to be minimal, if thats possible with a Porsche. Modestly optioned Caymans and Boxster S' w/ PDK easily climb above 70K. I know it say's BASE but still.
