would rather buy a 996 turbo with some techart body work , turn the boost up to 600 h.p. and smoke the doors off those late model ferraris.

aaaahhh yes...a 996 turbo, gives the eyes pleasure.

Are you interested in all those options on that Spyder if not I've been in this car, it is sweet: http://hendrick-porsche.ebizautos.com/webdetail.aspx?iid=8010746

They had a black one too that I like even more, but I think it sold.

I agree with Jacabean on the Gemballa, RUF or otherwise expert prepared cars as a exciting prospect. There are not too many on the market and even fewer PDK. It occurs to me this morning that I will have to see whatever I buy, god I don't even know if I'll like the view out the spyder and I am certainly not psyched about a 70K car with yet another plastic back window. The spyder premium puts it alongside the 2009 911 cabrio I drove at the dealer in price as well.

I have seen a video of a Cayman S beating a Ferrari 360 on a race track in two different video's and racetracks somewhere on youtube.

I would not be suprised if the Boxster Spyder is faster than the 360 around a race track.

Check out the notes and the reported cost of the engine out. I love the F355, and for $45k, it's right at the market average, but regular maintanence is half the value of the car!

Yea no ****************, my friend has a low mileage F355 convertible, paid $30k last summer for a known cracked header issue turned engine rebuild... he said that's the last Fcar he'll ever buy.

They're beautiful cars but they're like high-end escorts, you have to pay to play.

Another guy has a 430 and he claims it costs him $6 every km he drives, not including gas!!
