Naturally aspirated flat sixes return to the Porsche 718 in new GTS 4.0 models

Porsche is finally returning the glorious wailing flat-six engines to the Boxster and Cayman in a non GT4/Spyder model.

The new GTS 4.0 trim includes a 4.0L NA Flat-6, derived from the 992 3.0L Flat-6, with 394 horsepower and 309 lb-ft of torque and a 7800-rpm redline paired exclusively to a 6-speed manual and standard Sport-Chrono Package.

Of course it will also have the typical Porsche tax likely starting around the high 80's and likely fully optioned well over 100.

This should likely sooth over some of the controversy regarding the current Flat-4 engines the Boxster and Cayman use, and possibly help resurrect some sales as the current generation has been seeing quite a decline.
