I like the wheels in the first pic more than the others. The others have too much wheel and look a bit too chunky. But for 70K+ I think every car should have nice wheels.

That is too general a statement, and i don't like it

Remember that every single porsche up to the Carrera 4S is about 30,000 cheaper than the Modena, and even more compared to the Saleen S7 or SL65. The turbo and GT series solidly outperform the Modena, and the Stradale and Challenge series are good competirtors for it, but even so, cost more than the Porsche competitors (GT2 costs 115,000 pounds, Stradale, is 110,000, and Challenge is 115,000 (i think))

The high performance porsches all have a fully manual option, not a paddle shift or auto, such as the Merc AMG series cars. Although the cars are similar of similar specs, the porsches' represent the best all round choice due to their price And isnt the S7 super expensive, and in a different weight and power class to the porsche's? Isn't it more comparable to like the Zonda and Konigsegg?

Hah, ok I'll visually make my point about them all looking the same. Here is a chart I just made that shows every year porsche from the 60's to today and they all have the exact same shape. No doubt they have gotten much more powerful from the 60's sluggish models.



I wasn't using directly comparison to the Modena or S7 in terms of price to performance. I was merely saying that if I had $100,000 to spend on a car, I'd most likely be loaded and have like 10 cars anyways so spending an extra $30,000 for a Modena isn't unreasonable. It's not like now where I have a $13,000 car now and going to a $30,000 is a huge step. Yes the S7 I'd say is in a different league, its more of a supercar like the Enzo, Ford GT, Mclaren, etc but priced way less. I'm not sure what the Zonda is though.

I can't say that porsche is best all around because the looks department is stale to me, I wouldn't be happy driving one honestly. I'd rather have an M3, unless I was on the prowl with the mere purpose of picking up chicas

We've got a new 2006 E90 (3 series) over in our lot where I work. It's heavily camoed but looks like it's taking a lot of design cues form it's older upper market siblings. Don't know if that's a good thing... The BMW styling is pretty.. interesting..

I don't know why people are calling BMW's overrated. I really see no reason. They have about as many reliability issues as any other german car manufacturer. Plus you can get any BMW with a manual transmission...

And the design of the porsche kind of limits what shape the body can take. The whole rear engine rear wheel drive has really been the deciding factor in the shape of the 911. Look what happens when they don't do it... they get weird stuff like the 944...
