I found a flat 4 friend

2 of 3 flat 4 sports cars (ok, sports car or 2+2s) I can think of, BRZ and 356




talk about a head turner, literally every person who walked by stopped to stare at this Porsche, myself included.

I don't find that Porsche attractive at all. It is overly bulbousy for my taste like most Porsches. I would go nuts for a CGT though.

Beetles - yes
911 - sort of, not really (to me at least) but i am highly biased.

Your BRZ looks great btw!

The 356 was a 4cyl? I'm not sure I knew that. I knew the 912 was a 4cyl...

Reminds me of one of the Porsche's I saw up at Amherst. I don't what kind it was, but it looked very similar to this one. I should dig it up and post it sometime. Other than that I admired that Porsche and the one that's been posted here.

Also most of the 914s were flat fours.

550's are nicer IMO (the car that James Dean died in).

Well yeah...

There were about 150 550 Spyders ever made and they were specifically built for racing. The 356 was a mass-production road car, at over 70,000 produced.

So of course the 550 nicer. You cant really compare them.

The 550 is a work of art.
