Well said, Doug. I adore GT3s but it would be a third car, not a daily driver. A friend of mine had one and bravely tried to drive it around town, including to the Whole Foods (that war zone of a parking lot!). Michigan roads being the absolute crap that they are, she sold it a year later. The only time she truly

Amen!

It's not an original Carrera RS, but still :)

In Europe you also can't get a license if you don't know how to go through a roundabout. Or use a turn signal. Or...sigh. We should just steal their entire driver training program.

Do you double clutch? Great car, BTW.

HVAC works just fine — as long as you want AC in Winter and heat in Summer.

Your girls and my girls should hang out together—mine can't wait to drive the Cayman. They are constantly asking us to explain how cars work and can already tell when the car is sliding or is unbalanced.

Don't think so. I learned to drive in my Dad's 912 and Beetle, and the challenges presented by the transmissions, etc. inspired me to work harder to be precise. Don't want the car to get squirrely? Be more precise with the throttle. Don't want the car to come around? Don't lift in the corner. Don't want lockup? Be

I'm with you there. Still waiting for my 1972 911. Tried to get one instead of an engagement ring, but noooo

Can you heel-and-toe as well as all that? How about in heels?

No Corolla...it will rob you of your soul. How about a dirt-cheap Honda Civic Si from the same era?

Good for you for learning to drive a manual and therefore getting to drive that gem. What did you do with all those 58 horses?! :)

I am the mother of two little girls. Before they go forth into the world, it is my goal to have them learn to drive a manual, heel-and-toe, and break without setting off the ABS or triggering the traction control. Also, I have to get my hands on a Porsche 911 Carerra RS so they can get the proper aircooled experience

If I am someone with questionable driving skills who cares little about handling but wants to buy a high-horsepower car so I can go fast in a straight line, which car should I purchase?

This is terrible. :(

Well, of course you are! Choice is a wonderful thing. :)

I was kidding, @shiftright. :)

If I owned a 918 I would drive it everywhere too.

I knew there would be dire consequences if the Burger King purchase went through.

Can we also have yoga at Burning SuperCar Man? If yes, I'm in.
