Does Felina still work there?
Back on track, here is a picture of my 987.2 Boxa S that I love.

Maybe the 981 is just that kind of special? Great looking but still approachable?


Heh, I've had a red 987 Boxster S for years, and just bought carrara white 911 T. We have inverse cars!

I don't expect a whole lot of conversation about the 911, I think most everyone who sees a 911 knows it's a Porsche. Hell I think it's a little boring looking myself.

The 987 on the other hand, it just looks good. I think Porsche nailed a classic look with those, especially the Cayman. (embarrassed to say I've had a Cayman R in peridot green for a few years too).

For attention when driving a 911, choose a classic. I can’t imagine getting more comments in a Lambo or Bugatti than I get every time I take this antique out for a drive.

For sure, bring that out and you own the street.
