That was me up until the fall of 2008 when I test drove the recently launched 2009 997.2. It was game over after that as I wanted a 911 ever since.

When I asked some of them why, the responses I got were along the lines of: "Porsches are too serious, BMWs are more light hearted" or "I rarely drove it because nothing fit in it", or "that car was too stiff and I wanted something softer for a daily driver".
Porsche’s sport cars are definitely better suited as a 2nd, 3rd, 4th car and not as a daily driver.
