A new Porsche

[Jad]

What am I missing here? It is a 2 door sports coupe with less weight and a lower price than a 911, yet about 300 hp. If this isn't what Porsche should be building to sell cars, what is? Why is everyone bad mouthing it? Just because of the name? I can't say 356 or 911 or 944 are exactly brillant names, but who cares. How does it drive!

It sounds too much like caveman.

As in...your advanced automotive technology confuses me. Water pumps and radiators...midengine design. I don't understand. I am just a caveman.

Yup. The name really sucks. That's what I was talking about. I'm just going to have to call it by it's model number.
