    like the s2000, 350z, and RX-8's.. they were never meant to impress anyone out of the road course

    350z's are supposed to be impressive on the road course? Guess you learn something new everyday

    i didnt know that. stock s2000's?.. sounds dumb.. why?

    the s2000 is great handler. but to say the 350z lags for behind is completely wrong. in fact i wanted an s2000.. it just sucks that you have to be a leprechaun to fit in it.. so i test drove a Z.. took some crazy turns.. man.. cornering speeds had to be reduced slightly in the Z over the s2000 (due to more weight, and more torque which makes the car a bit more tail happy than the s2k when flicking throttle during turn entering/turn exiting .. ya know.. since the Z actually makes torque ) but the car definately had more pep. superior top end power/gearing . and best of all.. hard top and comfortable for a big guy

    The new Boxster S shines out on the road course. :confused: Mid-engine, incredible brakes, good power, light weight, etc...

    A Porsche that still runs 54-58k, though. The new Boxster S handles the slalom better than the Enzo and currently holds the record on street tires. The Elise comes with R-compound tires from the factory (option package), so that makes things a bit uneven.
