Porsche doesn't build race cars anymore. It's the new corvette.


Except for Porsche being the winningest manufacturer in le-mans history and corvette currently being in the manufacturers points lead this year...

I was going to jump in and started adding my photos and such and decided to delete. Sometimes its just not worth it. I also didnt want people to get me wrong as I really love my Z and its a great car. Good bang for the buck factor.

When my Z was hit last winter the old guy who hit me thought it was a porche. Took it as a compliment and it improved my mood about .00000000001% considering he just HIT MY Z. She's all fixed now though.

Oh and on full coverage I pay (mind you I live in Las Vegas where rates are pretty high) for the same exact coverage on both cars although the Z is a 2011 and the Posrche is a 2010 (With way fewer miles), $1,019 every 6 months for the 370Z Sport and I pay $823 every 6 months for the Cayman S.

The rear fender flares out pretty agressively in the z and that reminds me of a 911. Maybe that's why

Yeah, the only way someone would ask if a Porsche is a Z is if they are not at all knowledgable about cars and they know someone who has a Z. Otherwise, anyone who knows about the Z is going to be able to know a Porsche when they see one.
