Nice article and well written. It seems like more of a subjective comparison as they didn't do any testing.

I guess the title should be more like "36K vs. 95K"

They said the 350Z's steering was remote compared to the 370Z. They didn't say it was worse compared to most cars, just relative to the 370Z.

It's fun to go to the Porsche Cayman configurator page. I optioned out a base boxter once for $113k just to see if it could be done. Good luck getting resale outta those options...

Porsche offers a list of options for every car, but who would really buy a Cayman for upwards of 100K. It can be optioned as such, but is not a typical price.

Awesome article
I like how it was just facts, and certain basic opinions.
95k is a bit much but hey if thats what they want Porsche will surely oblige...
Can't wait to get my 370Z!!!!

Motor Trend just tested the 2009 Cayman S PDK with a 4.5 0-60 average. I would say lights out for the 370Z, at least in the acceleration department.

I for one don't think an additional $50k is worth the .5 second, but that's just me.
