"Three very different cars, vette, 928, and 968. Neither Porsche is going feel anything close to the vette for power, unless its an OLD vette, and no I don't think 300 hp out of a 968 will happen easy or cheap. If you look hard you should be able to find a very nice 968 for about what a much closer to average 928 will sell for, which is about half what a very nice 928 sells for.

What don't you like about the vette?"

Awesome feedback, everyone. It's greatly appreciated. Concerning the 'Vette, it's a nicely restored 1977 t-top, red on red with the original 350 V8. If any of you are into Vettes, you'll know that this model produced a pathetic 180, emissions choked horsepower and was only a little less anemic than the 1975, Corvette's darkest year, power-wise. I really love the car, as I've owned for over ten years handling the restoration myself as I drove it. I'd like to experience and learn something new and different, and with a growing family it's nice to be able to stuff small kids in the back, something a 'Vette owner cant even think about in today's world. 928s and 968s are on my radar, as I'm not ready to spend the coin it's going to require for a good 964 or 993 C2/C4. Whichever car I choose, I plan to enjoy periodically on the track. If I can't get too much power from the 968, I'd probably shoot for a reduction in weight to compensate.
