Everyone picks on the base 911 horsepower but scan down to the Leaderboard lap times in this current Road and Track article: http://www.porscheboost.com/content....urb-weight-etc

Back to the original topic, in the new issue of Panorama, the editors quote insiders at Porsche as saying 1. turbo-charged 991.2's are a strong-possibility, 2. they feel there are too many models across the 911 range (no *hit sherlock!!), 3. they don't think the 991 was the runaway sales success they hoped... so... wait for it... 4. The 991.2's Carreras might be 4WD across the range

I don't think it's good news since I'd rather have the choice of RWD and it's certain to add weight... but keep in mind that the current 4WD is very good at imitating RWD dynamics until you have the traction needs for 4WD.

Yes according to the blurb, the plan would be to keep the GT cars RWD.
