+1 Exactly they are rumors, we have to wait and see.Well they are, after all, just rumors.
We ultimately have to wait and see unless there is some credible leak on a power plant.
Ultimately if you are willing to spend $84k - a 911 S isn't far off from that and a great back up plan.
I mean really, there are a ton of options at that price point.
As for choices at that price point, I'd have to disagree. $90k gets you a base stripper 911 which is a fairly underwhelming car. Carrera S is over $100k, and with any modicum of typical options ticked, easily $110, $120k, although you can get a decent discount on a non special 911. That's at least $25k more than $84k. And again this would be a car with much less performance (albeit a very nice car). A comparable 911 would be the GT3, which starts in $140s but is really $150k+, and no discounts or over sticker.
There's sort of a big gulf between the budget high performance cars (Corvette, ZL1, Shelby) and the next level up. In the $80-$90k range you're looking pretty much at Z06, good discount on a very old brand new GT-R, or said stripper base base 911. Otherwise, you're spending maybe $50-$70k, or well over $100k, more like $150k+, to the next level. At least that's how it feels.
