Took a ride in a Porsche Caymen S yesterday

It's hard to find a decent Porsche owner. I've raced my uncle's Boxter. He sold it because he didn't like the comments and looks her got.

The local Porsche Clubs do AutoX right next to the lot where we do SCCA events at Miller park. It's HILARIOUS watching them do their runs. You'll hardly hear a tire squeal. There was a guy with a 944 racing with us in SCCA. i asked him how come he wasn't over there with the Porsche guys. His response was, "I like to actually DRIVE my car." Granted it's just a 944, but still.

Porsche's are are sick cars. I'd LOVE a Turbo or GT3. ONLY if I had a shit load of money. If however I was going to buy one real sports car in the $100k range, it would be a GTR or a Z06. BOTH are by FAR better performance cars per dollar. Any argument against saying the opposite is wrong. Period.

As a status symbol or a panty dropper Porsche is the clear winner.

I care more about bang for my buck though. And I don't need a car as a panty dropper, so....
