The thing with the new smaller capacity turbo engines is that they can offer various HP versions of the same engine and give different designations.This is what happens already with Audi, BMW and others that use the same turbo engine for a range of outputs.

If it will be so with Porsche, the customer will not feel that he gets something much more special with the higher output versions besides software and some minor reengineering.

With this new approach, I think that the 997.2 will be a cherished car with enthusiasts in future. 

 

Not sure if this is the case, the 997 lost quite in value judging by the used car values. I've seen Carrera GTS below 70k EUR with low mileage, this is insane.

Too early. The 997 will be the new 993 in a 5 years time.

Due to the difference in production numbers I don't think this will ever be the case, except for the GT3 RS.

If I got the numbers right, there were 4 times as many 997 cars produced as 993 cars.
