Viper to Porsche = you will lack the crazy power but you wont care because the car is sooo much nicer.

S2000 to Porsche = not sure if you will like the difference or not. Heck, just get a NSX!

Did the NSX already, mild manners but a bit slow. The 911 seams to have a good balance.

I agree the NSX is a bit slow. I supercharged mine and it woke it up.

However, the 996 isnt much faster. If you want to pick up some power go with the TT.

The Viper is a brute and the blanace is terrible. I think you'll be happy with a TT.

S2000 to Pcar:

Yep, that was me just a few months ago. You are leaving total security to the dark side. I've been a Honda Man for decades and the leap of faith is just that.

2004 Rio Yellow for the 1999 C2 CAB. Worth the effort!
