Mike N,
Extremely well put ! That last bit of overall quality, performance, and feel that differentiates the Porsche with almost any other car cannot be had for $ 5,000.00 - not even close. If it was that easy, they'd all be doing it.

Some people place value on "feel" and others dont. Feel is what would make me spend rediculous amounts of money on a "lesser" car on paper compared to a "paper-champ." Even if the other car lapped faster on the Ring, or wherever...i most likely won't be replicating that any time soon.
Few cars offer the feel and road communication that Porsche offers. Very few offer it for any price less than that of Porsche. Some people just want performance. Some people just want a smooth ride with some extra horespower. Some people want an experience on wheels. There is a reason there is competition out there. Of course to me i can't understand why anyone would drive anything but a Porsche, but personal taste and value plays a big part for people. I'll stick to feel!

Only true competitor I can see is (was) the BMW M Coupe... 321-325 bhp... unique looks and great handling... bet BMW will be kicking themselves that they didn't make a successor (mine was the best car I've ever owned - 2000 S50, silver/black... taken away from me by a wall and an over-zealous BMW "engineer")
