Time to reincarnate 904/6?
Discussion
New boxster pics look nice. Coupe good idea ... cheapish may compete with elises etc.
Porsche has raided its fifties heritage to good effect with the boxster. Time to move to the sixties surely
Isn't it time to reincarnate the 904. Am I the only one who thinks that these are gorgeous. Out dino-ing the 246gt 8 years before?
New car could follow the lines of the original but updated to compete directly with the elise/vx220. ie mid engined flat 4 (?200hp) turbo (?260hp). Aluminium. Sensible targa/roof (elise/vx220)
Call it .....I don't know....the Florio (would look better in Porsche script).
Unfortunately such a light car would be likely to outperform the more expensive cars. But if they made it sufficiently impractical?....if they got into bed with V.A.G. for a bit of platform sharing?
Am I mad or should Porsche be paying me consulting fees?
