Any 911 without a proper roof (a hard one) just look wrong.

Parr Cayman...

But i'm still betting you don't buy a Porsche

Not sure a 997 would go down well at customers though


Specification creep. This is you touring car.

Car for showing up at customers is your tattiest "I'm poor please buy one/pay me" beater

I cannot take the Vantage to customers, they just see it as too flash and inappropriate.

Customers pah



All depends on what industry your selling too I guess.
For us, It's the customers that turn up in the flash motors

i popped into our local porsche dealer on monday to get a £3.50 cap for a 996 cabrio roof....had a nose around some of the new stuff in there....uber cool! especially the GT3.

The new boxster spyder is also super cool in the flesh and personally i love the way it says, "I don't care if it doesn't have a roof, I have a Bentley in the garage for when it rains...and considerably more money than you...." hahaha

The best things on show tho had to be the two hot receptionists....porsche clearly don't do mingers!
