I don't think it works like that. Sticking a GTR or M3 or Z06 or 919 in a showroom enhances the appeal for the brand and makes you want to be a part of it, even if you are only there to buy a Altima, X1, Impala, Boxster, etc...

Norbert Singer. He designed the 956 and 962, and was a key guy for all of Porsche's Le Mans victories.

...that is the worst case of hemorrhoids I have ever seen...

The new one is not "great" yet. Maybe next time!

Ferrari will survive, but I could see this car putting Lamborghini out of business!

That is an old person's vert. I don't think anybody in their 20's would aspire to one. For the yuppie, anything European would trump anything Japanese or American.

Hey if you are going to use five, I can use 3 :)

Haha fair enough. It had high miles, some rough spots, and I spent many hours waiting for a good deal to come along. I don't think it was anything especially unusual though.

I got my 2006 997 (base coupe) for 26k. Deals are out there.
