Then, they generate the hype of the century for a camera that's no more
than a pimped-up K20D,

If you are talking about the K-7, be assured that it is as much a pimped
up
a K20 as a Porsche is a pimped up Beetle.

 But a 911 IS a pimped up Beetle ;-)

-Adam

The 356 was a pimped up Beetle, the 911 was something else entirely...

The 356 was a reskinned Beetle with a couple tweaks and a diet. The
911 was a chopped and pimped beetle. There's a reason you can
transplant older 911 drivetrains pretty much directly into a Beetle.
I've done that, it's not as easy as you think.

(I've also bolted a 356 engine into a Beetle, after helping rebuild it, I know of what I speak).
