He and Mr. Cunningham were embedded for years .

Impressive! What surprises me- though I'm not sure why- are the number of options more expensive than the PDK.

[Eric G]

...I think because they can?

If were able to spend 100k on a boxster, I'd pony up the extra 30k and get the new 991 I just looked at this week.

Instead of paying $100k for a new Boxster, I'd buy a 2 year old turbo and take the extra cash and save it for tires and brakes and $5 a gallon fuel, coming to a pump near you! (and for you forum members overseas, $10 a gallon).
