As a 914 owner, they are spot on.

I go from one extreme to the other - Porsche 911 to Toyota Corolla.

I guess that makes me a swinger..

There was a picture of this somewhere, but I couldn't find it:

Cayman - I wanted a Porsche but couldn't afford a 911.

911 - I wanted a Ferrari but couldn't afford it.

Macan - I wanted a Porsche but the wife wanted an SUV.

Cayenne - I wanted a Porsche but I have a small penis.

Taycan - I wanted a Porsche but the wife wanted a Tesla.

Something like that...

Acura Integra: I have always wanted to own the Buick of sports cars

I don't get it-- A Buick and an Integra would be complete opposites. Integras handle great but lacked power as a FWD sporty coupe. Buicks were floaty RWD and FWD pieces of garbage that had plush (velvet) interiors. Buicks are driven by geriatrics; Integras by younger dudes. I have no stake in the game having never owned a Buick or an Integra.

In the way back Buick was an upscale, respectable car but not Cadillac/Lincoln caliber. That's my take on it. Caste system, not comparing car to car.

so what bout a 13 year old Cayman?
what stereotype should I conform to?

edit.. just saw 2 posts before.

Dissagree.. I wanted a Cayman, cause i like the 2 seater more.. and it's closer to an early 911 then a current 911 is
