Driving Impressions: New 911 S vs. Z

elmz · 12-13-2012, 12:35 PM

I've never driven any type of 911's but I did get a chance to drive the new 981 Boxster. And I have to say, that car was a bliss to drive. Porsche is a company that knows how to make sports cars, and they do it very well. The 981 Boxster is the total package IMHO. I've never had that much fun behind the wheel of a car, and at the same time, I felt like I was surrounded with a plush environment. I won't go into detail about the ride/handling but believe me when I say, the 370 is outclassed in that department too. Considering the starting price of 50K, I think it's totally worth it. If that's any indication of what Porsche cars are like, then comparing the 370 to the 911 is a bit silly. No offense.
