I also own a tricked out 911. I will tell you that both my Accord and the 911 are very fun to drive. Both cars handle, accelerate, and brake impressively, but fitting 4 people in the 911 isn't practical at all. I have only spent about half of what a new M3 costs and can run them down without any issues. I still have nice things about my Accord (since it is still functional as a family car) except for the nice German leather interior.... Oh yeah (the Mystique that comes with being an M3 owner). Getting back to the 911... I get respect (and a lot of thumbs up) from people when they see the car on the street. I get an occassional BMW or Mercedes SMG owner who wants to see the Porsche tail lights... (European car owners street race also) As far as my Accord.... Well everyone wants to race it from domestic, to european, and every Ricer around. It must be the paint job. most people expect the Porsche to be fast, as it is in its heritage, but nobody expects an Accord to be fast.
