You can lease base model 911s for around $1100/month with almost no negotation and standard down payments. If you’re a haggler, $1000/month is attainable for a base model 911.

Hmm, drive a modified (not “Pristine”) RX-7 for $1000 for 1 day or 100 miles (whichever comes first!) or lease a 911 for the same amount of money per month.

“I said slowly, they are the same thing now. In the future the MB might become the more sporty of the 2. This is a post about predictions, right?”

The M2 isn’t a sports car? The M3/M4 aren’t to you? Ohhhh-kay.

The brand that made their distinctive tire-peeling AMGs AWD before BMW’s M?

A long day full of envy.

Edit: Nevermind - didn’t show more replies.

Fair enough, I wouldn’t get a Cayenne either.
