    Took the words right outta my mouth....
    Meh, there are folks modifying much more expensive cars than ours....besides, it's still just a car, but I love it.....I love the 308. There, I said it. :p
    But a streetable Gr. 4 car is my idea of the perfect 308 - maybe the perfect car for me - so I'm not overly concerned with cost or resale value. There is (should be) enough room in the hobby for all to appreciate the bone-stock car as well as the modified car (until you start plopping Honda engines into everything....hahahahahaha). It's the same car, just with a little different attitude.

    It's kind of a moot argument in any case since 99% of 3X8s - whatever their flavor - aren't being driven anywhere near the limit, along with the fact that 99% of 3X8 owners couldn't feel the difference in torsional rigidity between an S and a B anyway...myself included.

    I think 99% prefer to treat their cars with respect and understand there is a difference between using something to its full potential and just plain abusing it. :rolleyes:

    This interest me, i knew going in i wanted the GTS, simply the best targa ever designed imo. But if i was going for an old Porsche it would be the coupe no question, this is where my priority's switch around. The GTB is the more race car like but it is so small i feel it coud be enjoyed more with a little open air, especially with a partner, the car gives me The Graduate vibes but taken up a notch. Saying this i wonder how much torsional rigidity is gained back with the roof in place compaired the the GTB?
