A Porsche is a driver's car. It is just not comfortable for a passenger, in my opinion.

It's balanced and built for the driver.

When I ride in hubby's 911, I get "Porsche neck" from all the G-forces and whipping around corners. He doesn't even feel it. Also, he doesn't have a wind screen, so when the top's down, my long hair is in a blender. The clutch is ENTIRELY too hard to push for a long period of time. All the 911's have been like that, hard on the knee. I like the car overall, but I don't love it.

When he rides in my Boxster, he doesn't like it. He thinks it's just too small and it's boring to be a passenger. Also, he complains that I drive too fast.

like hate

she likes it , drives it, but is afraid to mess it up. Then this summer after 7k maintenance, ( new front end, ims, rear brakes, rotors flywheel etc.)which took 55 days back and forth to the shop chasing rattles and me being very blue without the black box. Recently she has said in jest " I hate that car". Just today after 2 hrs driving I was on the phone and told her this car is really nice I love it for what its worth. her .....no comment, super cool, hot wife i am a lucky blessed man. Reliable not durable PORSCHE ! p.s. you know what Sig F. says about jokes " behind every joke is a speck of truth.
