IMO Porsches are toys, enjoy them or get rid of them. Many days the best part of my day is the 30 minute commute in each direction. That's why I drive at least one of my Porsches year round. This year it was the 3.6, what a blast when I floor it.
I must admit, however that since this is the most powerful Porsche I've owned, I cannot floor it from a dead stop unless I use second gear from a stop, since the acceleration in first is not manageable even with traction control, 265x18 tires and a LSD.
I'm currently looking for a 3.8 X51 for my 01 2.7.......
