Well I am not a boy either and am an athletic 6'3" and I also think it is a bit "boy-racerish" Hard to say if I ever drove one I might get over it especially since I don't see a 991 Turbo moving in to my price range any time soon.

That is of course a big difference. The GT3 is a bargain in the U.S. Over here a GT3 with the basic necessary options is in the pricerange of the non-S Turbo. And the Turbo S may be pretty expensive, but with our free Swiss package, otions like Burmester, telephone module, voice control and even a TV-tuner are added for free. I need only 12% of base price on options on the Turbo S to get the same equipped car as my C4S build, which had 57%!!! of baseprice on options.

This makes a big differrence in depreciation, since I will never get all the added value of those options back when I sell the car.
Taken everything in account (depreciation, taxes, insurance, petrol, maintenance, etc.), the Turbo S is only CHF8000 ($8700) more expensive over 4 years and 20000km/y than my C4S build. That made it a no brainer for me.

Too flashy. Concur!

And TechArt always looks so ghetto.
