No_name,

Are you on crack? The S2K has better balance than the Boxster? The Boxster has a 44/56 ratio. How exactly is the S2K better balanced? Maybe while it's sitting still but that's about it. Please explain...and I'd love to hear this.

In the meantime, let's go thru some physics and let's have you refute these claims I'm making:

1. Boxster has a lower polar moment of inertia due to the motor's c/g being closer to the driver. Lower moi makes the car pivot easier (e.g. slalom). All this relative to the S2K. True or false. Explain.

2. Boxster's 44/56 ratio is superior to S2K.
2a. During acceleration, the weight is transferred more on the rear wheels.
2b. During braking, the heavier rear allows the rear brakes to be more efficient.
True or false. Explain.

So you think my comments make you go hmmm? I think you better check yourself.

BTW, short of working for Honda, what makes you so sure that there will be '06 and '07 model S2K's? As far as I'm concerned, your "rumor" of there being cars is just as valid as other rumors of the S2K going into extinction.

PS:
My comment of "the only midengine that matters has to be behind the driver" is "not convincing" to you? Just because you refuse to be educated. You come in here spouting off about how great the S2K is and now about how it's better balanced. If you wanted to learn, you should have just asked why m/r is better than f/r.

Meanwhile, you haven't provided any facts to back up your claim. Feel free to go into "geek talk" as you put it. I'm a mechanical engineer. Bring it.

Again, refute my points. Otherwise, cut the ****************.
