Isn't a Porsche GT car developed by the GT division?

Even turbos including the S have an integrated dry sump hence one major reason the Mezger (iconic and dry sump) equipped turbos through 2010 iircc are in high demand. Other engine internals upgrades are profound as well. AP will say what he needs to sell Porsches. Great guy I'm sure but he's still very loyal as he should be.
