They may have 400 hp, but the LS2 Goats also weigh about 4,000 lbs. I see them pretty often at a local drag strip. They're ok, but they aren't super quick and of course they can't turn.

We all know that the GTO or the american 400 hp it represents is a different kind of beast than the Boxster. I, like most on this forum, really enjoy the Boxster. But I would be suprised if it was the favorite ride for everyone.
I dont mean that as an elitest comment at all, not everybody likes small sports cars better than big-engine cars, and thats cool. I remember the days of muscle cars, and it was an awful lot of fun to go fast in a straight line. So get behind the wheel of a big V-8 and see if that makes you smile more than your Boxster, its all about fun guys,
Ed

blk...i'm so disappointed at you
your choice went from C32 AMG to Pontiac GTO
You mentioned that you got bored now on your boxster and you had it for 3 years....have you really driven it the way it supposed to be? I'm just asking *flame suit on*
There are guys who's into HP and there are guys who's into less HP but fun to drive

Thats fine, I am all about everyone buying american cars since I work at a Ford assembly plant. But I have this disscussion almost everyday at work and the bottom line is American sports cars dont compare with German sports cars!!!!!!!
