I heard that as well but for now they will get slightly breathed on versions of the same offered in the Boxster and Boxster S. Current Boxster and Boxster S have 2.7 liter 265hp and 3.4 liter 315hp engines respectively. Current Cayman and Cayman S have 2.9 liter 265hp and 3.4 liter 320hp engines respectively. It should be noted the new 2.7 liter engine has less torque but same HP which is reached 500 rpm sooner than the outgoing 2.9 liter. I believe it's more fuel efficient as well.
