Calling a 300+ HP mid-engined Porsche a chick car doesn't make sense to most people, but if the purpose of that statement was to emphasize that you are not most people then you succeeded.

I dig it but I don't feel compelled to replace my current Cayman any time soon.

Sex!
Love it or hate it, Porsche seems to improve their cars with every redesign (at a higher price). |

LOL - Avanti's GF drives a 3RS which basically makes him king. So a little razz here and there about the girly Cayman/Boxster is healthy...
I realize it's a great car, and this gen is almost masculine enough for less secure males like myself to consider. I normally give zero weight to styling, but when the car looks like a hot chick, I just can't see it any other way |

The new Boxster and Cayman look fantastic, the pricing not so much.

I think that's the case with any Porsche. Not that it makes me want one any less.

Boxster > Cayman > 911
That is all. |

Cayman or Boxster doesn't matter. Either one screams to the world, "I'm a **** and can't afford a 911."
or "I'm a girl with a rich dad/sugar daddy" Rather get a used 911 for $50k. |

Great car, but I'd rather had the 911 just to have the flexibility to haul my kids around as well.

Anyway, Touring pkg, Navi pkg, Premium pkg, ugly as hell mudflaps, I/C pipes, strut braces, ugly as hell chrome accents on the door handles, trunk lid and mirrors. Or you could have a Porsche or a BMW...... Plus they slapped a $5,000 "market adjustment on it Worst thing is I bet it sells within the month. |

Any car of that caliber is a show car on the road. Fast cars on public roads are boring. Those that buy the car for anything else are usually getting a GT3 for track days and most of those I've seen lapping slower than a track-built Honda civic because the drivers are too scared of the car. You can hear them lift and not get on the throttle through every turn. If you think they are the best, go get one. Resale value is terrible so you would have no trouble finding one that is affordable. Last edited by AllAWD; 12-01-2012 at 07:59 PM. |

As to the Cayman being a "chick" car, I've never once even seen a female driving one. |
