03 Boxster S vs S2000

[Ghostrider 310]

I like the way the Porsche feels when pushed much better than the japanese cars I have driven. I have not had the pleasure to drive the S2000 or an Elise, I have read you really need to keep the revs high to get great speed with the 2000. The Elise is supposed to get a bigger motor soon, I'm sure it will be a rockin car, however, I don't care for it's Bug Face looking front structure at all.

Im with you on that one, 1997 S500 , 2002 S500, 2006 S500, and 2007 S550 all spend more time at the Mercedes Dealer than in my garage. I'm on first name basis with everyone at Calstar Mercedes Benz.

My latest Mercedes was a rolling turd. To make matters worse, my dealership was unbelievably incompetent, not to mention crooked. Having enough **************** in my life to worry about already, I sold the car to a guy I really don't like. I feel better already.

I don't think that hwy drag race is any sort of idiotic act. Truth is at the age of 25, I have done numerous amount of track event over the past 6 years that I m still very in love with hwy drag race. It is just a different kind of fun. I know that the Boxster S isn't a drag car, but it is still fun to race with other cars in the straight.

As for Japanese vs German build quality, i have to say Japanese cars are better build in terms of reliability. Sure the German have leather here and there and it makes everything look nice, but Japanese car are so damn reliable and hard to break down. We have 2 Porsches at home and 2 Jap cars and they are just so damn reliable. I know a few friends that have Cayenne and X5 and i heard lots of electric problems that they encounter or other sort of problems. Where as my 4runner ltd just keep on running and running even at 270,000km on it. Not a single problem, no electric failure and no mechanical failure as well. I will have to say Japanese over German for build quality.

Highway drag racing is illegal and puts yourself and others in danger.

What about that is "fun" to you?

Grow up and stick to the track.
