Couldn't agree more. Drove a 500 horse Mercedes e63 AMG. It felt like a fast aircraft carrier.

We have an SL600 Renntech in our family stable.
V12 bi turbo 700+ hp
Crazy fast and yes it feels like an airplane.
Doesn't handle nearly as we'll as the Boxster but 10 times faster in a straight line.
Trying to sell it, any takers?
We have 3 two seaters in the family.
A Boxster
Honda CRZ
And SL600 Renntech
Lolz family outings we need to take at least 3 cars haha

To be fair, that's a completely different class of vehicle. Not really a relevant comparison.
