Darius,

If you want to make a point, then at least post a link that non-Koreans can read!!!

My daily driver is a stock 1986 944 with 200K miles. I also DE the car a couple of times a year. I guess I could be driving an '86 300Z, Supra, or Mustang GT (how many such cars with 200K miles even exist?). All of those cars would have more horsepower than my 944. Would I trade my 944 for any of them. NO.

I wish I had a Boxster S instead of my 2.5 liter Boxster, but an S is not in my budget. Still, would I take a straight trade of my Boxster for a 350Z or S2000? No way, despite horsepower numbers.

well I do know that if it was a short track with lots of turns the Boxter and S2000 would have been 1 and 2....no point to be made ..just heckling you guys...notice how the "nissan"R34 was the camera car and would not let anyone go after the 350Z"nissan" so I know it was biased...just wanted your oppinons....and they are Japanese.....

pits the Nissan 350z, Porsche Boxster S, BMW Z4 3.0, Audi TT 3.2 DSG Roadster. Surprisingly (at least to me) they picked the Boxster. Surprising as the Boxster is 4-6 years old and the others are much newer designs.

Gee, surprise. Darius is just this month's contributor to the "come into the Boxster forum stirring up **** about their performance or image, while also mis-spelling the name as Boxter" club.

Thanks for the heads up.
