NO NO NO - nothing like a 911 IMHO.

I think this is quite an interesting graphic from that point of view. comparing Taycan / 911 / Panamera dimensions.One point not yet mentioned -- the seating position, particularly where your hips sit, is similar to a 911. The way the steering wheel rises to you, the good view through at least 270°, and the front wheel "wings" all feel 911-ish.
All Porsches share similar driver ergonomics. That has very little to do with the actual handling of the car. The Taycan is a sporty sedan. The standard 911 is a GT sports car. The GT2/3/4 is a sports car.I think this is quite an interesting graphic from that point of view. comparing Taycan / 911 / Panamera dimensions.
'seating position similar to 911'
Take a look at a cayman gts 4.0 tooInteresting topic and great to have insight from owners of 911 and Cayman/Boxters.
I have considered to buy a Cayman (S) and turn it fake (replica) GT4, to have a fun car, that's why I will watch this topic closely.

I know some will wonder why would I turn normal Cayman to replica GT4, here is explanation:
I live in shitty country where every car must pay "car tax" (calculated from CO2 emissions) added to VAT etc. in Taycan Turbo it is 3,400€, Cayman S it is 38,700€, Cayman GT4 it is 64,600€.
So end price of of Cayman S is 115,332€ and GT4 is 173,200 and GT RS is 277,340€

So question is, will Cayman "GT4" provide that much more fun to justify to spend significant money on it?
