    haha not in canada.

    should have specified the prices are USD . . .

    and ya, you would be hard pressed to find a C6 Z06 for under 45k.

    993, great performance, little depreciation, and IMO the best looks in the bunch.

    Didn't realize you could get a cayman, even used for the price, that is a pretty cool car.

    IMO, the 993 is head and shoulders above the others.

    For a sunday sportscar? It isn't even near the performance of most of these other cars, and is not on the list.

    hence why I said I voted for NSX but I would still rather get a 350Z due to it being new. 300+ Hp, rwd, lsd, two seater sports car?

    I dont know sounds pretty close to the S2000 and Z4 to me so it does belong in this group, but don't want a z4 or s2000

    993 by far and its not even close. that being said its not going to be easy to find a nice 993 turbo for $45 000 plus maintenance is not cheap.

    NSX would be second but not a close second, there are a lot of other cars not on this list that i would take over an NSX.


    You should ask your friend if the cost ok upkeep is important to him because some of those cars are going to cost a lot more in maintenance.
