Take a 911
Make it a bit wider and longer (than even the 997 replacement).
Turn the engine/box round, scrap the rear seats to make it mid engined.

Job done.

You forgot "make it out of Carbon fibre and double the Power output"!

Looking at what the 959 was at it's most simplistic, it was a mega-911.

They should just do that again.

They should make a entry- level 35,000 EUR Porsche. Would anyone fancy a new 944? I kind of like the idea of four cylinder, four seater FR Porsche, mmm. I think development cost could be little high to develop a completely new design.

Isn't that what the VW Bluesport concept was leading to? The last I read was that it will surface alongside an Audi R4 type thing and a new sub-Boxter.
