Love that. The 914 handles that sort of thing very nicely. Lift off the gas a little and the nose tucks right in. All this in a 26 year old car with 165 series tires.It's soo much fun pulling off the highway @ 75mph & not slowing down for the exit ramp that says "25mph" as your friend in the passenger seat feels the need to change his diaper.
It may not sell well, but it sure is one sweet ride.Originally posted by: NFS4

Too bad it was a regular Boxster. A Boxster S would have smoked your ass. The regular Boxster is $41,000 while the Boxster S is around $50,000. That being said, the Q45 is sales disaster for Nissan. I'd be surprised to see it last much longer.

This baby (140,000 miles) has come ALONG way since the day I picked it up (back then I drove it around with a bad sparkplug for months--only using 4-cylinders of a 5-cyl engine!)

Volvo 850-R does 0-60 in ~ 6.7 seconds. Even with a better intake, you're not gonna get THAT much better accleration.
Boxster, 0-60 in 5.9 - 6.0 seconds
Boxster S, 0-60 in 5.2 seconds
Q45, 0-60 in 5.9 - 6.1 seconds
Your 850-R would be sucking exhaust

I bet your penis grew at least an inch because of that.
