I am with you Mike....post a picture, would love to see your Carrera S.

The cheapest most fun convertible out there is this......



well, I cannot say much about the R8 other than it seems to be a fine vehicle from afar, but......last summer I did buy a 16' Porsche CS2 PDK, sports chrono, sports exhaust......

mine is a coupe not a convertible.....but everything should apply equally. my wife has issues with wind in her eyes so a convertible is not a choice for me. personally I love the look of the 911, particularly the CS2. $90k should do it for a low mileage 15' or 16' nicely equipped.

I wanted a fun weekend car that the wife and I could enjoy. I had considered the Cayman GT4 or other 2 seaters but......the CS2 with it's generous front truck and flexible rear seat is perfect for my wife to have real world usable space. we took two 4 day trips with it and it delivered on all my expectations. and it is so comfortable to sit in. The CS2 has all the 'go-fast' one could ask for......400hp, under 4 seconds 0-60, 190 mph. sure there is more performance out there, but unless you track it what can one do with it?

and the quality of a CS2 and the way everything is so sorted out and perfect is much appreciated. and while some like the bigger brutish heavier 2 seaters, personally I'm a 'less is more' sort of person.....who appreciates the more agile lighter approach.
