Fugly? Ha! What a great word combination, and a true single-word oxymoron as well, of which there are precious few, if any!

Hi,
I think it's ironic that people will Bash and Malign a Boxster with Tiptronic S as not being a True Sports Car, degrading what a True Porsche is all about, all the while singing the praises of some Hyped-Up Truck on Steroids, simply because it has a Porsche Emblem.
For me at least, I think such folly demonstrates a certain degree of ignorance, but that's just me...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

IMO it's two different beasts. I don't see either having anything to do with Porsche, rather having to do with sports cars and SUV's. Wether or not anyone likes or dislikes the Cayenne and/or the fact that Porsche makes it, it is still by all standards an SUV (though I'm sure SUV fanatics would argue otherwise). The Cayenne Turbo S is an SUV with rockets on the back. Is it a sports car? No. But I am half suprised there isn't a Dodge emblem with the Hemi logo on the side. Where as the Boxster is a sports car in it's purest form. Apples and Oranges.
That being said, my opinion has changed on Tiptronic in the Boxster. Where as I still don't like it for myself; if that's what others prefer, more power to them.

I'm not upset, I think it's great and amusing. Sarcasm is my sense of humor. Though I must point out, I do find great enjoyment that your post started with "Don't be so upset..." and ended with "As rats they should be terminated...", that is awesome.
As far as cops go, I think we should all relocate to Missouri, where you can have any speeding ticket taken off of your record by paying an extra 50-150 bucks to a "Traffic Lawyer". No joke. Though now that I don't live there, I have noticed I get a lot less speeding tickets, hrm...
