911monty, we are on the same wavelength. I will never understand the appeal of Hogly-Fergusons. I've tried riding with friends who had them, and it never went well. The first time I had my Honda 500 Interceptor. I quickly tired of riding slowly enough he could stay near me. And I wasn't TRYING to go fast--I saved that for the track where things were better controlled. The second time was on my Ducati ST2. It started overheating since we were going at a speed to get sufficient cooling airflow. We won't go into aesthetics, but the sound! If I wanted a tractor, I would just buy one.
Getting back to the Porsche world, I had dismissed Boxsters as "hairdressers'" or "girls'" cars, but the experience, both tactile and aural is so sublime so as to overrule that perception.
Glad to know I'm not the only weirdo looking up at aircraft overhead making delicious sounds. I even like Piper Cubs and DC3s!
