Pick one -- 370Z vs Porsche Cayman

bvl

Huh. So because the car doesn't have an enormous *** and weigh 500 lbs more then it should its a chick car? That is some sound reasoning.

The z is a great value but its not a p car in the feel department. Buying used helps with cayman and boxsters as they get hit hard initially then level out. Do I like Porsche parts costs? Of course not but the running costs are very similar in fact.

I like our z r for what it is but it's a piggy and it can not touch the steering feel of a mid engined masterpiece. The wife DDs a base 987.1 cayman and given the choice between keeping only one the Z goes. I drive it too

On public roads power comes second to control and the base 2.7 is plenty quick enough to ring out the flat 6 to exotic sounds without speeding too much. The z gets top down duties with a pedestrian 6 that is saved only by the good transmission. The engine lacks soul. I wish it has a strait 6 of old but they are a dying breed.

I am not at all unhappy with the z for what it is: I simply cannot blindly join a love fest for it when the other vehicle is better in the driving feel categories.
