The new Boxster really looks amazing and I can't wait to see the next gen Cayman, which should look even better. If I were to ever get a Porsche, it would be used and a few years old.

I don't think I'm the only person here that does that (openly talks about future cars... and talks themselves out of it).

It's important therapy because there are a lot of us that will price out cars that we really shouldn't be pricing out... and maybe we're mentally unstable enough to actually go out and make a pretty bad financial decision.

They really suck you in with that base price, though. $78k... sweet! I might be able to afford a 911!

*a few options later*

What you have to do is price it out and then subtract 5 from the model year
