    Better with a Cayman than a Boxster.

    Got rid of my Cayman S before Christmas. Best car I've ever driven but too impractical (mpg and only 2 seats). Didn't realise how many times one of the parasites accompanied the enemy and I.

    Sorry, I am an old timer. I just miss the sensation of my face exiting my ass when I hit the loud peddle.

    I know the above statement opens me up to a barage of abuse, but my 911T, GT3 phase of my life was

    Absolutley ******* excellent.

    It was what contracting was all about. Well that and the ladies of negotiable virtue.

    *I now have a 4WD 90D Tesla, but those Porsches were something else.

    Do you need to transport much?
    Do you have pets/children?
    Do you travel on country lanes or just motorways?

As long as you want no more than one passenger they are gems.
