I've seen these rumors. There's nothing from Porsche and I can't find anything from autocar magazine, where the rumor apparently started.


From Motor Trend magazine, May 3, 2006:

Although Porsche managing director Wendelin Wiedeking described the Carrera GT project as a success, a Porsche spokesman in Stuttgart confirmed that a successor model was currently not being planned.

I would not be at all surprised if this is not the car that will take that new engine!
Could it be the V8 in the RS Spyder?

Spill th beans man, c'mon. PLEASE! I've been dying here lately with all the "green" news killing the car industry.

Seeing a grown man cry isn't pretty, think about it.

Answer: Probably because car nerds like me are latching on to any and all stories, rumors or dreams pertaining to anything supercar related in an attemp to somehow stem off the tide of the PC CAFE politically correct "green" crowd.

So this pictures is a fake.
Are there any substantial rumors of the next exotic Porsche.
In my opinion the GT2 and Turbos have gotten so fast is there really a market for a exotic P car?
