Is it time to get a manual ICE car if you can right now? I will say I dont need a car necessarily at the moment but feel like I should just get it since it seems like most manufacturers have pledged to move to half or full ev in a few years (or will they actually?). This is for a Cayman/Boxster 4.0

911 ICE isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. Also, putting such heavy batteries in the rear will cause major handling issues.

Porsche actually said recently the 911 will never be an EV.

Thank God

I would say yes. While, like you said, they aren’t going away for another few years, the change is coming and Porsche would first likely axe the cayman/boxster or make them EVs before they touched the 911 or other products (aside from the Macan). Also go for the cayman 4.0 over the boxster - I know they are nearly identical but the cayman just looks cooler lol

Next gen cayman will be electric km 90% sure of

Although, the booster/cayman 4.0 are going for SIGNIFICANTLY over sticker (like 15-50k) and even used ones are in the 110-125 range

On a side note.. say in 30 years, with most cars gone EV- does anyone think a few niche ICE brands will remain/launch for enthusiasts? Autonomous is a different beast with a similar question though. I’m sad because I can’t afford a gt4 anytime soon.

Aston all day baby
