How spoilt are you in America though with car prices. A new boxster S is what roughly $60,000 in US. Thats about $80,000 here. Our Price $140,000 !!!!!
GT3 US $99,000 ( $140,000 Aus ) . Aus $280,000 !!!! umm yep thats half price?

Careful with that GT3. A mate has one im my Porsche Club and he doesn't let anyone but experienced drivers behind the wheel. You really have to stay on top of that car. Its a FULL CONCETRATION ALWAYS machine. A very high percentage of them have been totaled. He says in the rain its a handful and if its not properly in alignment its down right dangerous.
By the way he likes the new CaymanS and says its totaly different than the Boxster in chasis and has quicker inputs than his GT3.
