Are you a Driver or a Hay-Rider?
I would like to start this poll and ask if your a Driver, or prefer to ride along.
Which car would you prefer:
987 S
997 S w/X-51
997 GT3 (hopefully there will be one shortly)
997 Turbo

My thoughts:
987 S: Drivers Car with awesome sunshine ability
997 S w/X-51 package: Grand touring car
997 GT3: Drivers Car. Only thing purer is a 997 Porsche Cup Car
997 Turbo: Very fast grand touring car

The thing I love the most about the 997 is that its driving the price of the 996 down.
The GT3 is useless for daily driving, The X-51 package is a ripoff on a grand scale ($20 grand and no significant increase in HP/Torque??)
I guess I would go with the Turbo. Having little to no experience with driving cars with FI, something new would be cool.
Anyone ever driven an S2000 with FI?

Forced Injection? I think he meant a supercharger or turbo charger.
