This is pretty interesting, here in the UK the story seems to be completely different. A recent survey found the 911 to have the highest percentage of desirability of any car amongst males, and the lowest amongst females. My girlfriend, her sister and her friends all love my outgoing M3, but to a woman they think the incoming 911S is "ugly" and "dated". I asked them all: seriously, which car would you take if you could have either for nothing? The 2 year old M3 everytime!
