yeah what he ^ said.

So Mr. "Porsche and a Merc in my garage", which of the two do you get more compliments on? After driving a Miata in PCA events so often I got used to seeing
Porsches and thought they weren't really anything uncommon, despite rarely seeing them on the road after the PCA event. Once I actually made the switch to the BoxsterS I realized how many people drool for this car and the brand. Its like literally EVERY SINGLE TIME I drive this car I get a question, compliment or glazed staring eyes following me as I turn a corner or pull in for gas. I just don't seeing it happening this much with a Merc, if ever.
The numbers of Porsches and Mercs on the road probably explains the bigger interest by the 'spectators'.

p.s.
the Miata was more fun. Which is one reason I'm considering an Elise when they aren't ludricously expensive (MR2 engine $40-50K )
