Boxster: Porsche in Panties.......

Not sure if any of you tuned into the Sopranos last night, but there was a quote that I thought was hilarious when the topic came up about speed, racing motorcycles against Porsches', etc.

A rather young kid was touting the speed of his dad's Boxster, when the older and wiser "made" guy made the comment "sorry to burst your bubble, but a Boxster is like a Porsche in panties"--he then went on to tout the Turbo Carrera and how he used to race (and beat) them with his various bikes.

Neither of which I own, but it was still funny.

Yes, I saw that too. A very unexpected line to hear in the show. Very funny (no offense to anyone!!).

I knew someone would start a thread on this board about it.

ciao,

Someone else made this comment about a week ago. It's pretty accurate if you think about it

Ken would probably drive the RuF version of the Boxster. The one with the 911 drivetrain in it

I thought it was funnier that the guy said he beat the turbo Porsche with a "74 Harley Davidson shovelhead"...
