Guys, I wanna buy a windshield for my bike (2025). It’s difficult to ride above 120kmph. Any suggestions welcome!

Those who have only a Porsche, do you regret it due to the size of the car? I badly want to buy a 718 but afraid it won’t help in day to day things due to smaller trunk/frunk sizes. Do you also have this issue ? Eg: getting a bit larger furniture, helping a friend (3 people in this case) won’t be possible at all.

Hey everyone,

I’m struggling to decide between two cars and would really appreciate advice from people who have experience with either of them.

The two options I’m considering are:
- Porsche 718 Cayman/Boxster (2016, 981 generation)
- BMW 330e (2023)

A bit about my situation:
- I live in the Netherlands
- I don’t daily drive much, so the car will mostly be for weekend drives, occasional use, and European road trips
- I want something sporty and fun to drive, not a boring commuter car
- I plan to keep the car for at least 5 to 7 years, this is important to me
- Reliability matters a lot. I know no car is perfect, but I don’t want constant garage visits or major mechanical/electrical headaches

The Porsche is the car I emotionally prefer. I love the driving feel and character. But I’m worried that buying a 2016 car now could become problematic or feel too old after another 5 years.

On the other hand, the BMW is much newer and probably more practical/modern, but I keep hearing mixed opinions about long-term BMW reliability, especially with hybrid systems and electronics.

So if you were in my position:
- Which one would you trust more for 5 to 7 years of ownership?
- Which one is likely to be less stressful financially and mechanically?
- Is the older Porsche still the better choice despite the age?
- Or is the newer BMW the smarter move overall?

Would love to hear real ownership experiences, especially from people who have owned these cars long term.

Thanks! 🙏
