Spend 30k on a Sports 2000 and you'll be a throwin stones at a Boxster!!
40k will get you a full race prepped 2.5 914/6 with slicks!!

Just for grins and giggles.........how much fun would this be???:

That goes with anything in life.... why do we buy our Boxster when we can get a Miata or S2000 for less money??? Why does anyone buy new Rolex when you can buy a Casio??? Why buy a 911 Turbo when you can get a Nissan GT-R???

Porsche realizes there are people that will spend the money to buy a car like that and that's why they made it. It's called running a business.
