I see there are various levels of 911, and the Emira currently has two engines being retailed.

Is the 911 a level above the Emira? In terms of driving feel, comfort, power and any other metric worth comparing them.

    I would say any lotus is above any Porsche. Porsche is literally a budget sports car. Lotus is an entry to exotic cars

      Agree that Lotus is an entry to exotic cars. Disagree that Porsche is a budget sports car. Porsches as a range cost more than Lotus, and reach higher performance spec than Lotus. Lotus is more akin to the experience of a McLaren or Ferrari, just down on power. Porsche is akin to… Porsche, since they also make exotics.

      I think you need to go drive a Porsche sports car and correct your understanding of their offering. Even a base Boxster is not “a budget sports car” once you’re behind the wheel and above 5000 rpm.

      Most people agree the Emira and Cayman are pretty close, with the Cayman having better behaviors on public roads, and the Emira feeling a touch more raw.

        Good thing I owned one then so I know what I’m talking about. Porsche is a sporty VW that asks for exotic car money.
