I'm the oldest fart posting so far - 48 . No kids so a 2 seat sports car works. And bang for the buck, the 'Vette is untouchable. Since I just beat lung cancer in 2012 I'm buying because I want the car (was honestly all set for a S4 or to possibly wait for the new M3/M4). Saw the reveal and that was basically the end of the decision process. Just comes down to the coupe now or wait a year for the 'vert and/or 8 speed auto. Porsche has always been on my dream list but honestly, a friggin' Boxster loaded up now is $85K or better! Not to mention $500 oil changes and $140/hour labor charges for service :nono:

A Porsche has been on my bucket list since a kid. The older I get the less I like those cars and the more unobtainable they seem as time goes by. I could buy a decent used one but once I laid my eyes on the jet looking cockpit of that c7? Porsche what??? Glad to have you here |

Ditto. Brand new revolutionary is better than an unobtanium new or even a recent pre-owned Porsche... and I love P-cars but the new Stingray is a better bang for the buck IMO.

The S5 is one sexy car, no doubt. And Audi's S-line is one very slick DCT. But for $60K, the C7 should blow the doors off it and look good doing so. Plus be a lot easier to work on with cheaper parts from your friendly, local Chevy dealer.
