Surfing our Boxter friends site and found somebody unhappy with bashers complaining about the car not being fast enough and suggesting they might be happier with a 993 GT2 which requires a $40K overhaul every 30 HOURS!

Granted the 3.6 twin turbo/intercooler makes 530 horses, but damn! That works out to about 147 hp per liter.

I would imagine you could take that 40K and buy an new S2000 and a comptec supercharger and get close to 147hp/liter, and have change enough for all of Rick's gear

Lets see, 30 hours times miles per hour works out to somewhere around 5000 miles, or about the same amout of time between $20.00 oil changes for us.
