    Hey man, let's not look to deep into this of whether the bike I like is macho enough or not. I like the look of it (which I am entitled), and I like the fact that it is something easy enough to cruise PC and the mountain roads in (which I am also entitled).

    EDIT:

    I practically live in Park City on vacation time and this bike I think would suit my needs just fine for getting around and veiwing the scenery. That's all I was getting at when I mentioned that I liked.

    Despite all your reasons, I still can't quite see why. I mean for a petrolhead a car would just be better in every sense, wouldn't it?
    There's something about it that just makes it a wonderful car to drive. The ride, balance and handling are uncanny for a car so high off the ground. I also must confess I'm pretty bad a parking cars, so the visibility and high profile tires are nice too. I'm still not a big fan of big SUVs: Whenever someone parks a Range Rover, a MB G500, a Nissan Armada or a Hummer next to me it DWARFS my car and all I can think is: You'd better have five kids otherwise you have no excuse.

    For that type of riding you'd definitely want the 900.

    There's no way I could off the top of my head chose 4 cars.

    Simply there's too much selection.

    Two things. First off, you seem pretty set on the 997 GT3RS, and yet you didn't chose it in your first list - why is that?

    Secondly, which 997 GT3? pre- or post-facelift?

    i dunno. like i said, it was a snap decision. i guess because i plan on getting one some day anyway and i viewed this list as a blank cheque for bonus cars

    it was a smart decision to leave out the RS?
    why, because you wanted it
