The vette is the comparison I was after, so let's call it $75K for a 3LT after discounts, a 911S is damn near double that no? My issue with the vette is it is ugly, really big car with less practicality and no 2+2 but if those things don't bother you it is a no brainer.
The only thing 911 has that gives it any sports car points is a manual. It's just hard to argue the car with a backseat, the car that lets you add massive amounts of leather everywhere, the car that has a moonroof... That car is a sports car and not a touring car? Nah man.

The C8 is ugly. No doubt about that. And compared to previous generations they hurt practicality. But big? It's 4 inches longer and 3 inches wider than a 992. I hate to be the guy to tell you this, but 4" isn't a lot.
