I haven't read the article yet (but I can't wait to now!), but I must admit that Porsche definitely has its hands full with the competition. They used to be the big and the bad whom little could touch, and when a V8 spanked it one the straight line we would write it off as "Porsches were never meant to be drag cars". But now Corvettes and Vipers are coming onto our turf, the racetrack, and giving us a serious run for our money...scary part is you could buy a Vette, a boat, and truck to pull it with for the price of the Porsche. So why again should I go with the Porsche if the Corvette does pretty much everything the Porsche does...oh, except scream "I'm VERY rich"? I don't want to be the traitor here, I love Porsches and have the utmost respect for German engineering. But I'm only 27. I grew up in the 80's when American cars were junk. Times are changing. I graduate from law school this December. When I treat myself after landing (finally) a high paying job, I'm going to need some serious persuasion to stick with Porsche. M3's, Vipers, Vettes...they are all looking very tempting for a lot less money.
