Porsche CEO Confirms New Mid-Engine Supercar Being Considered

What do you do if the 911 Turbo S is not cool enough but you can’t afford the 918 Spyder? You buy a Ferrari 458 Italia or a McLaren MP4-12C, that’s what.

Porsche knows this and wants to plug the gap with a new mid-engined supercar to slot between these models. Usually, their efforts to slot a model between two others results in cars that are not as goo as they could have been (Cayman) but that won’t stop us from getting excited.

We’ve known about this project for a while now, but in an interview with German magazine Handelsblatt, Porsche CEO Matthias Müller confirmed the company is looking into a mid-engined supercar.

The car would cost somewhere between €300,000-400,000 ($390,000-520,000), which is a lot of money to pay for a Porsche. If anybody is to pay that sort of figure, the car would have to be very special in every way.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s.
