Message	Only the 911, the Boxster and that new SUV is a joke. The Boxster was really only made to keep Porsche financially alive so that they wouldn't be stuck in a sticky situation again (in 1994 the company almost went bankrupt, 1995 the Boxster concept car made the rounds on the show circuit). On the 951 (internal designation for the 944 turbo) vs. Z32TT issue, I recommend the TTZ over the 951. The Z is much more comfortable, slightly larger in proportion and in my opinion better looking than the 944. If you're going to buy a Porsche, spring for a 911, don't waste your time with their cars that have the engine on the wrong side. =) later, amir "Man, a car full of ugly girls in an explorer tried to chase me down today, I almost vomited then floored it and got the hell away."-nadir "Yeah, I made 185rwhp at 11 psi....errrr...I mean degrees of timing."-SeedyRom
