Same here I've driven a few, one mostly because my friend always has had one too many whiskeys. I agree the car is a real head-turner but its not all a sports car. I feel like i'm in a monster truck with impeccable manners and funny feeling pedals.
I've never been remotely attracted to luxury (except for the new Jaguars) but I'm just weird that way. Easy on those tires though, my friend is always crying about how expensive the rears are and how often he has to swap them out and its a hog on gas....I have a feeling you'll be back in the Porsche ranks before long. The great thing about Pcars is that they never look old.
