Excerpt:

I’ve flown 10 hours to listen to an engine. Which isn’t that big a deal, really. I once drove 20 hours straight for a corned beef sandwich. But the stakes here are considerably higher. See, Porsche is replacing the near-perfect flat-sixes in its Boxster with brand-new, turbocharged flat-fours. The 718 Boxster now has a 2.0-liter four making 300 horsepower and the 718 Boxster S has a 2.5-liter good for 350 hp.

I shared the following news about the Porsche Boxster and Cayman flat-four engines:

Porsche to Manufacture Horizontally-opposed 4-cylinder Engines

Yeah, I’ve been fixated on that car because…well, because of the flat-four.  I’m interested in seeing how a non-Subaru manufacturer extracts power from a flat-four.  As well, I’d like to hear how they sound.  I’m also wondering how the Porsche purists will respond to those two cars and their flat-four engines.

Sadly, I’ve not seen or heard much yet, but I’ve no doubt I’ll have my questions answered once the first real reviews are made public.
