the M3 has half and half mine wiht my uncle he is going to buy my half so then once i sell corsa i can put all money together....
pics will be up soon of corsa...... blue metalic with a silver glitter flick and on 18 bk 240 chromes.
yeah agree but cant afford a 911 and want a porsche..... i got a merc a class as a company car which is going to be changed to a skoda RS Octavia in august so just wanna have it for weekend car. not everyones choice i know but life would be boriing if everyone though the same!

sounds like this is the reason tbh and to be a typical badge ponce with it - my farts produce more power than that will ever have, so your not getting it to be driven 
However, im with everyone else - there not all that and i know a few people that drive them, and they have all said they were abit disapointed with it - and for 15k you can get yourself a kit car that will keep up with bikes, or a elise, or vaux vx220, or a TT - something that will actually do handling and something that has the power

Have been in both, the boxster S and the S2000..
Got to say I much prefer the Honda, just because it feels more sportier inside, not too mention the sound it makes as the VTEC kicks in..
Saying that I wouldnt slate the boxster s, yeah the 911 costs a lot more but your getting more for your money.. boxsters aint exactly dirt cheap and they are nice cars love both but deffo prefer the s2000

rather have a top model honda then a bottom model porsche
also, anyone can afford them, its not like its hard to get 15k on the never never nowerdays
its running and maintaining the damn thing where people fall short on and end up driving it on a shoe string

Tbh id go with a s2000 aswell, nout wrong with the boxster imo, if you want a nice porsche and have 15k id get one but theres other cars out there for that money aswell, as for poor mans porsche, how many off us can afford a top range 911? not many, boxster would do imo!

aye, but the quattro isnt too bad mate 
tbh, if your really after a porsche, then get a decent classic from like the 60s/70s or something, would be much better and rarer etc 
although i agree with everyone else, s2000/vx220/elise etc
