JAAY, Nice rant and frankly I concur with most of it. Porsche should have made the top similar but motor-less, perhaps weight could have been saved in the frame too. The model name is too long and looks like a novel stretched across the small trunklid. As far as the tires, maybe unsprung weight becomes an issue as you keep upsizing. Granted, I don't have mega hp to put down to the pavement but I'm happy with 17". Lastly, Porsche slapping limited edition on a lot of cars in the last few years based on cosmetics is about as disingenuous as putting "GT" after the word "Sunfire". Maybe they need not go as radical as you proposed but IMO, a true limited edition of anything should "******************** and Get" when contrasted to even the S model.
