I never considered the Boxter a real porsche. It's way over priced with the options and it doesn't perform like it should for that price. Most of the people I know that drive it are show offs that don't even know how to drive.

Is that why you are getting the S2000, to get dates?

 

naishou,

Thanks for your input on the WRX. See I know that it has a more grunty feel to it, but at the same time, I guess the point of what I said was that if the guy had a bit of brain, he'd realize that the S2000 is hardly a pantywaist, wussy car compared to his high-and-mighty WRX.

Again, of course I side with both Honda and Subaru, because of my loving of the former and ownership of the latter. If the STi hits the US (in decent condition), yeah I'll probably buy one.
I mean.......... duh.

Maybe so, but as all the good UK test drivers have said over and over again, you can't see the headlights from the inside!

really though, couldn't they have made it just a tad more appealling on the outside? If wanted to design a car to appeal to the market, would'nt you want the outside to be as cool as the performance underneath? I honestly don't get why they did that.

 

It is odd-looking, but it's one of those things that if you really look at it............ it isn't really ugly.

I mean, when the new Prelude came out in '97, I thought I'd throw up. But I grew to love the look of it.

People said the 360 Modena was an "untrue Ferrari" because of the way the front end is designed... But that sucker was hardly a failure.
