Me: Gullwing Coupe, I just love the look of the front.
 
E63 vs M5: M5, M5, and M5. It's just beautiful... :drool:

300SL vs 550 Spyder: 300SL, simply for it's classic styling and iconic doors.
 
Chevelle SS vs. GTO: Ugh, toughie here.... Ummm, I'll take the Chevelle, can't go wrong with a LS6 454. ;)

300SL vs. 550 Spyder: Another one?! Ummm, give me the 550, because classic racing Porsche :D.
 
Here is one I was thinking about for some time.

1997 Porsche Boxster (986), automatic, 30,300 miles, $14,995:

-OR-
2007 Saturn Sky Redline, Manual, 27,311 miles, $19,995:

If I had to buy one of them, I would probably take the Porsche. Probably.
 
I would take the Boxster because the Saturn in my eyes is just ugly but, I'm not a massive Boxster fan though.
 
Saturn sky.

Reason. I absolutely hate the boxer. One of the ugliest Porsche i have seen besides the new 4 door which is probably the ugliest thing i have seen this year. The back end is just awful
 
Where do you live that Boxsters are common?
Skys are like Camrys here, there is usually a couple per square mile. But I have yet to see a Porsche Boxster.

If you come to the London you will see boxsters are to a penny in England.

I think they are common pretty much everywhere in the UK, except the North of course...

Despite that I would still take it over the Saturn, from the looks of it I can't imagine it's any good. Plus it's American.
 
The Boxster. Even though it's an automatic transmission car with more miles and less style, it's a Porsche Boxster.

Personally, I'm torn. The Boxster is ten years (exactly) older than the Sky, and is ugly as hell, but is cheaper and mid engined...

Wow no sense of style (again), the porsche is x100 prettier than the saturn. Its basic and still has porsches balance, but screams i cant afford a 911 (or even cayman). The Saturn screams 'i didn't look at any other car and listened to the dealer' so ill pick the Boxster.

In my opinion the 996/986 were the ugliest Porsches ever made (other than the Panorama), and I always had a think for the Skys...


Something about those headlights just kills it for me.

Yeh the old Boxster lights werent great but better than the saturn sky's (which just looks like a smiling Vauxhaul VX220 - also ugly). and the Rear looks like a failed attempt of copying the SLR.
