You want disrespect ? I don't even know what a BRZ/FRS is. Kind of like when people talk about the EVO or whatever that ugly 4 door thing with the big stupid Pep Boys wing on the trunk lid is. Those cars are so far below my radar so as to not register as serious sports cars.

It's funny how hypocritical some people on here are. They hate on the frs/brz but hate being hated on by some of the Porsche people and the comparisons of the Z to the cayman.

Porsches are better in damn near every possible way. I don't understand how somebody could get mad about a fact.

It's a Z forum so excuse a few of us if we justify the Z over every single car out there. We wouldn't be on this site if we wasn't fan boys.

Lol your like the 4th person to say that on here this week. A rr platform car, if you push them to the edge and go over there is no coming back from it. On the other hand a fr platform is much easier to recover if you go past its limits. That's why people crash Porsches a lot.

I'm not a fanboy. I love my Z, but I'm not going to say it's better than a Cayman S. It may be a better value for your money than a Cayman S, but it is not better in any performance metrics. It might be better in looks ( I think so) but that is subjective.

Not true. I could have bought a Cayman or 911 over a Z.
Most people here could have.
Why didn't you?
1. Because Porsche engines are not known for their reliabality. Try to find a 911 or Cayman with over 100,000 miles. I ASSUME the Z can do 300,000 without issue.
2. Unless you go to new Cayman, the 06-09s have IMS failure issues. Good luck with that....
3. When I test drove one, the dealer started it up, and a big cloud of smoke came out of it. The things are honestly pieces of under-engineered ****. They're great the first 3 years. After that, throw it away or get a $6,000 extended warranty.
4. The Cayman looks like a girls car from a lot of angles.
5. The 911 is HUGE. The thing is as big as a minivan.

I wouldn't buy a cayaman or an 991 and Porsche motors aren't unreliable. Porsche has one of the lowest warranty claims per 100 vehicals out of any auto maker aside from Lexus from 2010-2014. So the only 911 that I can't think of that had an unreliable motor was the 964. And I didn't buy one because well I'm a z nut.

I wasn't saying everybody, I said their was a few of us. I don't see no harm in it honestly. Are their better cars then the Z? Sure.. is their a car I want over the 370z? Nope.
