@@DasCaymanI bought an M2 CS, and agree 100%, 450hp is already too much for the road. 1st and 2nd gear are useless, and 3rd pull puts me in jail.

I was looking into an E36 M3 or 964, but you make me consider a base Boxster/Cayman, even an S2000 would be awesome. 400+ hp cars are great for top speed and highway pulls, but that’s not what I enjoy, I love ripping it in the mountains.

The Boxster is the best value mid engine car with an exotic engine sound. 👌Totally agree with not needing a GT3 for public roads, though the same can be said about the Spyder; a Boxster S is less than half the price of a Spyder with the same engine and no-stress roof, and you can argue that there's still too much speed so base models are not out of the question. A 986 is less than half of a 987 again, and it's a car that's been raced in motorsport for ages. To be fair, purely on engagement and fun on the road at legal speeds, a Miata is still the answer. It all comes down to what makes a car fun for you.

This is the thinking that I've taken on board for the past several years having higher HP cars. I always go back to what I love and truly enjoy and that is my 1996 Viper with a full system, tune, bushings, fresh mounts etc. The visceral nature of how this car feels in your hands is hands down the best in my book for what I personally want in a sports car. This varies from person to person. A 3000ish pound 2 seat sports car with 400-500 hp is the perfect amount of power/weight for spirited street driving. The engine noise is key but the feel of the chassis in your hands is what I've come to find as paramount.

@@trevorjordan5349 I’ve always had the opinion that if you can’t have fun in 50bhp then 500 isn’t gonna help you. Pushing a slow car fast is more fun than barely pushing a fast car because of road limitations. I’d say the one exception is track specific applications. I have a 1.8 Eunos Roadster and on the roads it’s the most fun car I’ve driven. But on the odd occasion I’ve driven on track I’ve felt like I wanted a little more power because the visibility and run off areas allow for full extraction of performance of the car. I’m not saying it’s not fun on track it definitely is. But I also think more powerful cars can be equally as fun on track where you can really push the limits without the looming danger of crashing into a tree or another car filled with a family.

Maybe those people live in FL or Texas where all they have are straight roads? I'm really appreciating the 9A1 engine too. It's such a cherry.

Hey! Currently working with an exhaust manufacturer right now, would you be interested in it? Trying to gauge interest :) The flywheel was probably one of my favorite mods to the car tbh... And greetings from Europe! Was there a little over a year ago for the first time in my life doing Euro delivery of a 4RS and a voyage with it to the Nurburgring. Truly the absolute time of my life. And I have zero regrets on the Spyder... just a few choice mods and it's so good... couldn't be happier! Thanks for the comment, really enjoy reading these and getting feedback!

@@DasCayman So exciting! Yes I'd definitely be interested in a good exhaust if/when I buy a Spyder! :) Been looking around, supply here is very limited and the majority have PDK. Bucket seats are also very rare in the cars for sale. I could live without bucket seats but not without a manual :) Busy summer ahead so will just keep an eye out for new listings.

Your picture should say 'Boxster is the answer... IF you have extra money' OBVIOUSLY every Miata owner would have gotten a nice Boxster Spyder (or any Boxster) instead but there is a HUGE price difference. I got my used 2017 Miata for only $18k because that's all that I could afford and I can easily work on it myself and parts are cheap. We would all love Boxsters but the early ones can have issues (definitely won't be as reliable as a modern Miata) and are a bit dated now and ALL Boxsters are more difficult and expensive to work on yourself so it's much more likely you'll need to take it to Porsche for any work and pay insane prices. Miata is still the answer here. Now, having said that, the Boxster Spyder is incredible and you really don't need any more power than that to enjoy on the street. I would certainly have that over any other $100k-ish car. Like, why would anyone buy an old E-Gear Gallardo over this. The Boxster with its rear haunches behind the seats also just looks fantastic and you got it in the best color too. Black, Red, White just don't look as good as silver on this car.
@DasCayman3 ай бұрын
Thank you for the comment! What I like about my Spyder is that it shares the exact same interior as the 997.2 GT3RS. So it’s all the same. Whereas a Miata wouldn’t be. Then you still are in a Porsche with its great suspension and flat six howl. Not knocking the Miata, really love those cars. But for someone who’s already saved $100k towards their $300k purchase I’d ask them to consider hoping off the train and giving a 987.2 Spyder with a few choice mods a try first :)
@villaman48183 ай бұрын
The 986 S (3.2) shouldn't be ignored. A truly capable car. Porsche got it so right with the first gen Boxster's....i would though only consider the 3.2 for that N/A Porsche experience.

the power output of cars from the early to late 2000's is perfect, I own an E46 M3 and that thing is still doing a 4.5 0-60... compare that to a lot of newer entry level sports cars and its faster or as fast. the ~300hp and ~300ft lbs is a general sweet spot for a sports car and a lot of the cars from two decades ago in that realm are at a good low, sure the maintenance costs are higher but you are getting a hell of a deal for the performance

Your a driver my friend and a brother from another no doubt. Having said that all I can say is your outlook is spot on and you MUST get a Gen2 Viper. The purest of the pure and nothing like it although your Spyder with how you have it setup does closely resemble the drive you get. Just add double the torque and tire, take away some of the interior quality (most of it) and to me the road presence of 7 figure Supercars for 50k. It's why I'm on my 8th Viper at age 38. They have ruined me for driving purity it's impossible to go back. Tried 911 Turbo and even Gen 5 Viper but nothing compares to the great ones.
