    Oh I agree that 911's are awesome cars in general, but it wouldn't kill them to maybe change up the looks a bit. The fact that it hasn't changed really at all in about 30 years says lazy in my mind.

    Yes please, but we'd need the xi around here. I'll sacrifice a fraction of a second for AWD. Then a road trip to Dinan...

    I drove the frs. I would get it if it cost 10 grand more and was nicer. Great handling, better acceleration than all whiners would think.... but the Rx-8 R3 is my choice over the FRS any day of the week ALL DAY LONG. I bet that if I was to park my R3 by the FRS at the dealer I could deter almost every looker.

    R3 = $27,400

    FRS = $26, 400

    X-Runner = $26,400

    FRS = No thank you.

    They don't make the RX8 anymore right? I wish they did and I wish they put a 16X in it. Or something even better ;)

    ^ This, except one from the 90's like the one on Bad Boys. Always loved the 911!

    Find an old 911 or better yet, a 914-6. Total sleeper and handled better.

    Some Suggestions in your area and avoid the Porsche turbos like the plague. buddy of mine has a 94 i think. been in the shop more than on the road since he bought it 2 years ago.

    Personally i would go for the lotus or NSX. both are far more exotic. Will turn heads for than a souped up car that you already see a million of on the road. For BMWs i would go for the 335 before the M3. Turbos are m ore fun :)

    I know a guy with a minty red NSX with less than 20,000 kms on it. He has it stored in my Moms garage. It looks new with not a mark on it. I'd love to buy it, but it would be too pricey.
