Well actually mine …
Well actually mine is a 1983 944.. yes I know it is one of the lowest Porsche’s but dude in 18…. and yes it is a real Porsche. I actually hate the Boxter and dont know why any self respecting person would buy one. My judgement still stays the same with the R8 Vs 911 Carrera.
Ehm, as far as I …
Ehm, as far as I know, a Porsche Boxter is still a Porsche technically. Whether you want to assume that it’s not as fast or powerful as a non-Boxter is just an opinion.

You’re no Porsche owner..
Probably a Boxer owner, which IS why you kept your post ambiguous, by saying you’re a Porsche owner, which in that case you ARE NOT A PORSCHE OWNER IDIOT.

The Porsche is so much better looking, this is just my opinion though, but the R8 just doesn’t seem to look as good, although it handles much better,

Personally, with respect to appearances, I think the Porsche (of any model, especially the SUV) are amongst the ugliest cars out there. I know this doesn’t sit well with many, but it is just my own opinion. The R8 is just stunning.

Dauers and one of …
Dauers and one of the Schuppans did. There are a few homologation cars like the Mission 400 that are close enough to it as well. They all run the flat 6 turbo. There is room to argue on “road legal” since we all come from different countries with different laws, but there were at least a dozen Dauers converted that had indicators, cats, AC, reverse gears and luggage. Most run around 750hp on standard ‘low tune’ settings but none of them needed a 1000hp to do 400km/h
your telling me a …
your telling me a road legal porshe can go up to 407km/h? like the veyron i dont know about that mate.
