I don't think it is going to be cheap. Its been spotted testing with the $190k 911 turbo S. Some media has reported it will not be replacing the C7, but will be sold along side it as the "Zora".

I'm not sure that this is good news, as it would likely spell even cheaper C7 pricing.
Further, with all the patent data floating around for six cylinder C8's it would seem that they could offer one at a pretty cheap price point while leaving the Zora plenty of room at the top.
Since the C7 is pretty long in the tooth, it would seem like we'd have seen a C9, or whatever, front engine replacement at least once if the C8 wasn't just going to supersede it.
Either way, 335hp and 3,200lbs isn't going to get it done against a Cayman or a Corvette.
