I wonder how many 1099s he'd have to fill out next year. |

I read that yesterday. As noted, the Ford Bronco was actually worth more than the Porsche. I wonder what he traded to get the Ford? |

HOLY CARP!!!

Aside from the Porsche Boxster not being a fantastic race car, the problems you mention are a few of its strengths. Manual transmission is a must, and a mid-engine car can't really "do" trunk space, especially if it's a roadster and the front is short on space. The 911 however, remains virtually unchanged in fundamental design over the last 3 or 4 decades, and is still a powerhouse of a super-car. |
