you're forgetting I live in Roswell/ Alpharetta, I see more lambos in a week than I see MS3s in three months, matter of fact I have only seen one since they came out on the road. We were eating dinner late at a resturant off N. Point Pwky and Haynes Bridge, there was only about 15 cars in the whole parking lot, 2 of which were Lambos and one Aston. So seeing a MS3 is a treat for my eyes. Now the Carrera GT that I saw was special, only one with my eyes ever.

a guy in a silver carrera gt lives next to my subdivison. i see it about twice a month going down old alabama or at bp usually on the weekend/fridays. it's loud and sounds great. also, there are definitely too many lambos around here. in the morning i'll see a bright green one, and i see a orange one around alot, and i see a black one every now and then. my neighbor has a black masarati with some annoying brakes(it squeezes down his drive way in the morning). another neighbor has a orange lotus elise which i dont see many of them much. a lady drives a titanium greyish colored one that i see(im assuming it's hers because i've never seen anyone else drive it). also, another lady drives a f355 spyder with some wicked exhaust on it too. also there are a mix of ferraris around too, but i've only seen 3 ms3's on the road so far.

that is true, matter of fact, i saw a lambo about 30 minutes ago on my way home

i havent even seen one MS3 at all, anywhere on the roads, and 3 days ago, i saw an aston, and i saw like 10 porsches in the publix parking lot, not all at the same time though

porsches are pretty much in the same class as every other daily driven car. go to the mall, and i bet u'll count at least 50 on just about any given day. all those cayenne's and boxers

Maybe it's just me, but I'd rather we didn't consider Cayennes Porsches.

Most true Porschephiles don't consider a Cayenne a Porsche...(yupnope)

i agree, but i also dont consider the boxter a porsche either. the caymen's way better so i'll consider that a porsche. in my book, it's just the caymen, carrera, gt3, gt2, carrera gt, and turbo. cayennes and boxters are jokes to me. just said it because i see too many of them. it's like the same body count as the tahoes and navigators

Don't the Cayman S and the Boxster S have the same engine this year? I know in the Cayman's first year it had more power, but I thought they updated the Boxster for 2007. AFAIK, aside from that, it's just chassis stiffness from the fixed roof.

I believe your right about the Caymen and Boxster. But all I have to say about the Cayenne is they can spank your cars anyday. I want to see the Panamera, that 4 door Porsche is HOT (headbang)

Well, a $90K Cayenne Turbo will beat my MS6 in a straight line, but I'd love to see how it keeps up in the twisties. There's a lot more to performance (and being a Porsche) than a crapload of power.
 
I saw a R8 about 2 or 3 weeks ago on the highway down here in tampa. I had heard they were testing them but hadnt seen one yet. Very cool looking car.
