Someone talk me out of it.....

I love my Porsche - I really really do. 2011 Turbo S cab.

The damn R8 though is haunting me.

Since I bought my Cayenne Turbo, I'm not as excited about having two porsches - my eye is wandering....

The R8 is just so good looking - and for my use of the car would be ok. I'm not taking it on the track or really pushing the car. Its my two day a week driver and if its nice weekend toy.

Performance wise - Porsche wins hands down.

Anyone live with both these cars? Please talk me out of it....I posted here instead of writing to my pusher...er, I mean dealer...er, salesperson :-)

Thanks gents.

Best regards,

asg

I have driven the v8 r8 at road Atlanta and have to admit great car. Its quick sounds great!!! Trade in your 911 and get it!!! You can always go back. Life's too short.
