750 was the best all around for someone who was capable. We are the same age, born ‘79. My first bike was a Suzuki jr50 at 3 years old.

 

This is me on my dads Ducati a long ass time ago. That bike lives in my living room now

 

My last bike I had and my new fun to drive ride

 

my wife got me this for Christmas; one step closer to acceptance of the inevitable.

 

Mine wasn’t expensive, I bought it at 10 years old. 2007 cayman s. About the same power as a base carrera from the same year. The big difference is the mid engine. Mine was $23k and it’s a blast to drive, it’s really everything I expected it would be.

 

I had the Honda Z50R

 

Do your due diligence. I think the cayman is considered bulletproof compared to the 911. I have 85k miles on mine and it runs like a top, I beat a Yamaha R3 to 60 the other day. I know that’s not much to brag about but I promise he’s not telling his friends about it. The car handles like it’s on rails and top speed is 171mph. I’ve had mine to 160 and it pulls strong all the way there.

 

I would rather have a FJ80 or LX450 over a sports car. The only car I have ever owned was a restored 1965 Mustang I got when I was 15. It only had the Sprint 200 inline 6. The GSXR was the only thing I've ever had with real speed to it.

I only drove that car for about 6 months and then parked it in the garage. I only got it out every once in a while. When I moved to Auburn, a guy started coming by and asking my dad to sell. He caught my dad on the right day about 9yrs in I'm still pissed he sold it

 

You’re actually a few steps closer than I ever got, I’m seeing her accepting it. I just showed up with mine and we didn’t speak for a month or so but I still have my car. Shit that was one nice month.

 

I would rather a sports car over a muscle car. Luxury cars can handle more like sports cars. My first car was a 5.0 mustang and after was a corvette. They were both quick but still nothing like the car i have now

 

she knows that ultimately I want a 959 or a 993 turbo. Neither one of those would ever be in the budget. Cayman or boxster may be in the cards after daycare is done.

 

Cayman over Boxster every day. I promise it will scratch your itch. Watch YouTube videos and all that. They really are bad ass.
