Agreed on all the numeric Porsches, but you could technically get a used Boxter or Cayman that would beat the crap out of almost every 911 (if you limit your search to the fastest variants of the newest used Boxters/Caymans).

I assume you didn't consider this because it would be too one-sided to be called a fight.

Great car, but you're cutting off 911 competition, in terms of actual go-fast ability, at "pre-facelift 996."

So it's a not-really-a-coupe, not-really-an-AMG that is called an AMG Coupe. The crossover part is how it's the bridge between two things it isn't!

If the Ferrari you owned were a 600+ hp, AWD 4 seat shooting brake, would you like it more?

Put it in an F150.

Nah, giraffes never skipped a neck day.

Tiger's too high, hippo's too low. I don't know shit about a sun bear, but I imagine it's too low.

If a car called a Zora and sold along side a front-engined Corvette isn't it a Zora instead of a Corvette?

I just assume they thought it was the new PT Cruiser convertible. I saw a BMW i8 in the wild the other day, so I think that equalized my carma.

clearly you aren't living in the old people retirement part of Florida. I see several a week from November through Easter.

Move to Florida if you want to see several of these a week.

Not every sports sedan is a 10/10ths car. No sane person approaches the limits of a 2014 BMW 3 series in daily driving, and I'd guess that most non-racers will never hit that mark for more than a single corner. If something can be as fun as a comparably priced car in every day driving, then there's a place for it in

I have no regrets.

Audi. Their whole lineup is MLB platform + 2.0/3.0 engine + 8 speed auto.

I think GM has one of those.

sometimes it queues up skips, so you'll press skip, nothing happens, you press it again, and suddenly you jump 2 lines (or more if you get really frustrated with the lack of anything happening).

Well, if you don't like it, don't buy it... err wait, that's not right, you did like it and you still couldn't buy it. I'm sorry that you'll have to be known as "McLaren guy" or "Porsche GT3 guy" instead of "Ferrari guy". Truly sorry.

XTS- High, bulbous roof, short hood/long trunk, soft features, everything's round. It looks like it's melting and it drives like an Oldsmobile.

In the sense that you look at an ATS, CTS, XTS, older CTS, or even an STS or DTS and see "that is a Cadillac sedan built sometime between 2000 and today" yeah, it's the same design language. The ATS and the current CTS look as different from the older Cadillacs as any German luxury sedan looks from its predecessors.
