lol when you look at what cars I have owned the last 10 cars, CSL, Noble , Exige, Cayman, GT3, M3, Spyder, Cayman R the new Boxster is not really the car for me, like wise nor is a 911. It's a great car for the market it's pitched at and will sell way more cars. Porsche are in the market to sell more cars, bad news for owners as resale will drop like never before, markets flooded with all makes of Porsche these days. Before, you bought a Porsche and 3 years later you got 60% back. these days you loose 100% of any extra's which is normally 10k and then get 50% back off the base price on a good day. I am anti automatic, I find it dull, I am anti PSM even In the Spyder and Cayman R you cannot turn it fully off, which is daft as we have a LSD and on tight bends we cannot use the LSD because PSM cuts back in. But above all I am anti this electric steering [

] The Spyder and Cayman R are amazing cars in this day and age to be this good to drive, and while people mock manual and wonder why I own a Cayman R when I already own a Spyder, it's because nothing and I mean nothing really drives any better. I do miss my 430bhp TTRS but know deep down after a go in one again or a GTR again, the speed thing is easy gotten over after a week. I doubt I will own another Porsche, the over revs, the warranty issues etc are all shocking, and now the new cars are ECU driven and more GT style, even the new Manual gear box is a PDK gear box, I would rather be in something like a Aston N420.. Now if I were to be either given the last OPC Spyder for sale or a New Boxster with sports chassis and buckets, I will then take the 981

that OPC Spyder just gives me the shudders with that spec.
