One other car to drive
Interesting that we all have cars that make our heart throb.
I too have looked at both cars and both are different. Another car I considered was the BMW ZM. With 330 hp. it has more of a V-8 push when you get on it. The four years of free maintence with the purchase is something I considered strongly. It is a car you have to drive agressively to get the performance equal to or above the Cayman S but it is very fun to do so. For me it was the Z4M or the C-6. Both pull strong and can more then hold their own. Both are different and again it is which on makes your heart throb. |
A friend has a 1984 Porsche - 944 turbo - anyway he bought it to keep it 'forever'. Well, he had some suspension issues (expected for a 20 year old car). It cost him 12,000 to replace it. The bills on this thing are super high. He is selling it now, and swore off Porsche. For the amount of money he is spending to maintain it, he said he could have a Ferrari.

I guess it's the looks...to me (no offense to any owners), it's a very feminine car that just doesn't do it for me...if I were a chick or gay, I might be more interested. That said, it's not going to have the power of a C6. I've been driving powerful V8's for the last 1/2 dozen years and couldn't go back to something as slow as the boxster... |
