    I am partial to the air cooled era of Porches, I regret selling my 72 Targa every day. The water cooled engines are just a completely different animal that I have mixed feelings about...

    That being said, you cant tell me the 911 turbo wouldn't put a smile on your face everyday?

    996T all day!

    I love the idea of a performance wagon. This is what I had before my R53....

    I wish there wasn't so much hate for wagons in the US, which keeps some great ones from being sold here...Focus St wagon, RS4 and RS6 Avant, or the newer XF Sportbrake.

    Man as much as I'd love an original GP, I have to go with that 996 Turbo Porsche.

    Man driving my friends 996 has ruined me. :smilewinkgrin:

    GP for me. The MINI isn't the fastest car, or even the best handling, but it's got some spark that made me fall in love with it. The 996 comes in very close in the fun to drive category.

    Well I'll be a monkey's uncle: we have a dead heat! I'm going to let this ride for a few hours and see if there's a tie-breaker or two still left in the crowd...

    Amazing to me that on a MINI forum a GP-1 isn't running away with this.

    I have no problem with MINI making a small sporty SUV/crossover however, what they are doing with the F56/55/and whatever other variants they can come up with sharing the ugliness of the euro "excuse" crash standards is a big turn off.

    I love my R60 as much as my R53, but for the life of me I cant stand the look of any of the F-cars. Some of the renderings of the second gen Countryman look good enough for me to keep with the brand a while longer though. :)

    Well, yeah, that's where I was going with that. It's just than in the subtlety department, I was trying to use a feather as opposed to your sledgehammer....:cornut:
