FASTREDZ Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 As above thinking of either of these two models in cabriolet version any thought or opinions? i did like the sl55 amg merc but they have no back seats :thumbdown: have seen these two for sale http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2762939.htm http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2400256.htm the porsche is now sold but there is a very similar one next to me Quote
Onslow Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Both great cars but IF I had the option I'd go for the Porka :) Quote
stellaZ Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Porka, the bmw is one ugly car, and we all know that only knob heads drive bmw's Quote
FASTREDZ Posted May 13, 2011 Author Posted May 13, 2011 Have to say its a bit ugly too but damn that interior is nice, porka 2 nil so far then I can't think of any other cabriolet I like, I have seen a gorgeous bumper for the Porsche by fiberwerks it looks a little like the new gt2 front bumper but with the old lights will have to post up pics Quote
big_jim Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 If its a car you only drive at the weekend or so, the 911. If you use it all teh time, the 645i. I like them both. My favorite car is probably the lastest 911. But if you drive it all the time, its not special. The BMW is a lovely car and you could drive it daily. I'd have both! Quote
mick1 Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 645 for me :cool2::cool2: My next car will be a 6 series :gun_bandana: Quote
Gaz 300 Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 As much as I love my BMW's I would go for the 911 on this one mate Quote
Guest Monkey Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 911 WITHOUT question. Surprised this question needs answering. The 6 series is fugly...and it's just a 6 series. Quote
Car.Mad Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 BM for me. Pokers are everywhere these days and dont look anything special imo Quote
daZvert Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Love the 6 series, old and new, the new 6 is very similar to the zed IMO, a few mods can make a world of difference to the dull stock looks, IMO!!! Porkers are nice and growing on me recently but gonna cost a fortune to repair and service Quote

The Porsche for me; it's a real sports car...not a 2 door version of a 5-series. Quote
FASTREDZ Posted May 13, 2011 Author Posted May 13, 2011 I have noticed that anything for the poker is soooo expensive its just the name so people charge supercar prices just like the zed, I do like the poker but find the interior a bit bland where the interior of the beemer shines through, ok the beemer looks a bit odd I do admit with the upside-down headlights, the beemer is cheaper and its quite a stretch for the porker as I need the 3.6 engine because the 3.4 has reliability issues Quote
ck300z Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 i like both allot but would be the porsche for me :) Quote
Kinugawa turbo Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Or a bit of a leftfield suggestion???!!! http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2781024.htm Loves these cars, such OTT styling and one of the best noises ever from a production V6....... Quote

RichardS Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 If its a car you only drive at the weekend or so, the 911. If you use it all teh time, the 645i......................! I agree with Jim.... .....911 is a superb driver's car but for practicality every day I'd have to say the BMW. Richard:biggrin: Quote I have something to say............ It's better to burn out than to fade away..... :tt2:
Sudesh Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 I've driven both and have a 996 facelift coupe, which is basically what's in your link. The face lift has the 3.6 engine and much nicer to drive and more torque than the 3.4 cars. Personally I'm not a huge convertible fan, if it was me I would look for a nice 996 4s, you get the beautiful turbo body and 4 wheel drive. Specs vary quite a bit on the 996 too and make a huge difference to value. Only thing I would say about the Porsche is, its not the most comfortable car on a long journey I find, and it feels very tight knit inside, also the interior is not the most beautiful, but I guess some dont like the ZX interior lol Quote
FASTREDZ Posted May 14, 2011 Author Posted May 14, 2011 im deffinetly with you on the 4s it such a good looking machine but it is the convertible im looking for :) it is the facelift im looking at with the 3.6 engine and i would love to put this kit on it http://www.betterbodiesmotorsport.com/interiors/bodykits30/bk30.html makes it look totally diffrent and more agressive i think Quote
TwinTurboRich Posted May 14, 2011 Posted May 14, 2011 Beemer for me, although wouldnt mind either of them. Quote
Kaza Steve Posted May 14, 2011 Posted May 14, 2011 ive driven my mates M6 and had a drive of a colleagues carrera 4s vert ...the M6 was simply awsome and made the porsche feel like a vw beetle....the 645i is not an M6 by a long way but dont discount it as not a drivers car it very much is as much as the porsche , its much more comfortable , is much rarer on the road has two practicle rear seats not 2 squabs for legless midgets ( and i dont mean drunk legless) for me its the BMW 100% Quote

FASTREDZ Posted May 14, 2011 Author Posted May 14, 2011 You can also get a 4s Convertible! And the price tag that comes with it too :crying: really nice though with the wide rear stance, the m6 looks awsome those wheels are very stunning on the beemer i must say how can choosing be so hard, an awsome jaw dropping convertible that snaps knicker elastic for under 20k is what im after beemer 645 porsche 911 sl55 amg could sacrifice the rear seats :2guns: Quote
