I know it’s just your first impression of the cars and that you’re mostly joking, so don’t take this personally… it’s just a short rant against Porsche ignorance everywhere, from a serious enthusiast.
Spelling “Boxster” wrong is a dead giveaway that a person doesn’t know anything about the car. It’s actually one of the best production racing platforms available, unfortunately underutilized. It’s mid-engined, compared to the 911’s rear engine, so much better balanced. It’s relatively light and the flat-6 has a very low center of gravity compared to an inline or V.
There’s a reason Porsche handicaps the Boxster and Cayman with less horsepower. The 911 is their flagship, and they know that all else being equal (engine, suspension, tires, etc), a “pussy Porsche” will embarrass a 911 on any track.[/quote]
