Challenger is for men (and women) who like to go fast in a straight line.

370z is for people whom like to go fast around corners too.

That's a good one.

Guess it is all relative/subjective. It is like debating which color is faster.

You implied our cars are fast In str8 and corners. Let's be real, I don't think our cars are considered that fast in the str8 line in the eyes of the v8 muscle car crowd.

my friend was like watch out for that curve! i was like what curve as we drove right over it. it watch out for that puddle!! what puddle as we displace the water into the neighboring convertible miata"1

You sound like a jerk.

it is hopeless if they are incompetent drivers. they will run into it whether it is a block wall or car.

the new cayman does look much better than the old ones, but the 911 is always considered to be the true porsche. i think the cayman is also a more balance car and better value comparing to the 911 (991).

There is something missing to me on the new cayman and 911. One of my buddies just picked up a 2014 911 and something just seems off riding in it and looking at it. I've never been a huge fan of the cayman, but have had a secret love affair with the 911 since childhood. I drove many when I was turning wrenches and always had a smile on my face doing so. Had a couple opportunities to buy, but to be honest was turned off by the owner base. My garage worked on a lot of high end cars ranging from early Bentley's to modern Ferrari's and by far the hardest customers to deal with was the Porsche guys.

To be honest I have yet to get behind the wheel of the cayman, they just seem to me to be the newest "poor mans porsche." Not that their cheap, but like the boxter, 914, 924 and so on porsche built them to get those with just enough income to become an owner. I guess you can say the same thing about many Z owners now, they want a GTR but can't afford one so the Z is the next best thing.

Back to the Miata, one of my guys at work just picked up the newest one. It is a mean looking little car. I don't know how it drives, but it's come a long way from it's bubbly disney cartoon looking grandfather.

With headers and exhaust ( and tune ) the new Miata gains +50 hp and +50tq thanks to its factory 2.0L engine and 13.0 compression ratio. We are talking 193 hp and 190 tq to the wheels ( 139 whp is stock ). I think it's impressive.

Did it have this kind of kit?
