Haha that's funny.
Porsche is the master of product positioning. They'd never drop the 4.0 GT3 engine into a cayman. Especially not while the 718 GT4 will release before the next gen 992 GT3, meaning you'd have engine parity across the lines and they wouldn't allow that.
The 981 GT4 had a detuned Carrera S engine. Let that sink in...not only did they not use the old 3.8 GT3 engine but they used a Carrera S engine and still dumbed it down even further.
Regardless, the GT4 will be a great car, but don't hold you breath on them dropping a GT3 engine into it. Heck, the jury is still out on whether it will even be NA...I don't think any car in Porsche's history has been as delayed as the 718 GT4...could be due to still playing with engine configurations (and fitting the particulate filter).
