Default Opinions needed for comparsion

Hello

I would like your personal opinion if you could chose your car again !

Out of all the 911 models which has the following charactistics
1. easiest to live with
2. less maintenance issues
3. best value for money
4. real drivers car - gives you the ultimate handling

Should one consider the Boxter or Cayman at all ?

Regards

I love my 1999 Porsche 911. If I was going to upgrade I would buy the new 997 version of the 911 2005 or newer probably a 911S. if i wanted to save money I would go for a 2002 or newer Porsch 911.

They are great cars and mine for the 7 1/2 year I have had it has been perfect! it amazes me. It is satisfying to drive and easy to live with!

Best bang for the buck: Cayman.

It really depends on what you want. I like my 996 Carrera a lot. I actually bought the last one on the lot after the 997s had arrived. Drove both and liked the 996 more (I am in a very small minority). It is generally considered a Porsche that "doesn't involve the driver a lot" (this is considered bad, I hear) but I use it as a daily driver and it is simply a perfect daily driver, always a joy to drive but it leaves me alone when I just want to relax and head home after a tough day at the office.

If you want a more involving car, the older 993s seem to fill the bill, as do the Cayman and the GT3, which is a truly great car.
