As you know, I just got my first glance of the 2009 Porsche 911 and posted a nice gallery and video of the updated icon.
I love the new 911...what's NOT to like?
Carrera S with Sport + package and you're zooming to 60MPH in 4.1 seconds. And that's NOT a typo.
But when i configured the 911S I would want, the MSRP rides right around $105k!!!!!
Which has a WHOLE new meaning in this economy.
I CAN afford it but SHOULD I spend it like a drunken sailor?
Then it hit me.
I could buy a fully loaded S5 coupe that would make most LA girls panties damp and SAVE over $50G's in the process.
Yes, the 911 is faster, but the S5 is better looking, has a nicer interior and it's WAY more rare in snobby Socal.
If I buy the 911, no one would even turn their head on Rodeo drive.
Because EVERYONE has a Porsche in SoCal.
Am I off my rocker here or is the S5 and pocket the cash, the better move?
What would YOU do?
