If you believe that then I want what your smoking.
Trust me Porsche does not in the least feel threatened our one upped by the Japanese . 924's came out way before FC's.
No matter what you say Turbo II or FC neither were better than a 944 especially a 944 turbo. FD well its a dope car but Mazda got smart and stopped trying to copy Porsche.
The GTR is not even going after the 911 Turbo. Its out to establish its own place in the realm of things much like the R32GTR and R34GTR did. Just like the FD did.
The 350z did aim for the Boxter and I feel they pulled it. They admitted that they aimed it there. Now did Porsche feel threatened by it? no. They just went and built the Caymen. The best handling Porsche since the 944. hahahhahhahhahhaha . give it up your not going to win this debate.
To keep it somewhat on topic 944's do make great track cars as would a Caymen . hehhehhehehhe
