Re: What other toys do you have?
Have you ever drove the older boxsters? Is it better driver than the old ones? I'm guessing it is. They lengthened it and I think it's wider too. Car looks great. I'm jelious. I want a Porsche so bad but a new house is on my list first. I'd like one of those new 991 Carreras

Driving the new Porsche compared to the older style is much like driving a C6 compared to a C5 to a C4 Corvette.
Obviously more powerful, better handling and definitely smoother. I can't explain how smooth this car is in the turns.
It's only 315HP which is not overly exciting but with a 4.8 0-60 and a top speed of 174mph, it'll get for an aspirated 6 cyl.
I've always wanted a Porsche because to me, it's a driver's car built by drivers. It's ergonomically correct, it's smooth, everything fits, the clutch is fantastic.... and since I wanted a convertible, that left me with either spending 140-160K for a 911 convertible or 80K for a Boxster. I've always liked everything about a Boxster but the body style. It was entirely too feminine for me. (no offense to those that have one)
Anyway, love the car, can't wait to hit the track with it.

It's pretty though...I'm not one for foreign cars, but it does look nice for a Boxster. They definitely 'manned them up.'

I agree, the Z06 looks fantastic... the interior however... let's just say that it's not my cup of tea. (quilted, harley skulls, carbon fiber, leather, suede, looks like he couldn't make up his mind in what direction/theme he wanted to take his car towards)
The BMW is tastefully done, I love the supercharger and the interior looks great... nice job!!
I'll bet it's a blast to drive.
