Which would you take?

For the same price of a 335 coupe lease, many othere cars can be purchased.

Which would you choose right now...?

Those cars are more performance oriented, genuine sports cars whereas the 335i is like a luxury coupe with sporty suspension.

I think the A5 is probably better suited for comparison and I would take the Audi in a heartbeat.

But out of those three, I suppose I'd take the Cayman S.

The Viper is something of a red herring. I guess this is a choice between comparable sports cars? I think the Porsche is the best all around package.
The Audi's a beauty queen, not a sports car.

I'm going with then minority and choosing the 'Vette. I'm a big fan of the C6 bodystyles and would most likely be driving with a constant smile on my face.
