Interesting concept, but I don't have the time to put towards making reasonable guesses so I'll leave you guys to it.

Neither do I anymore. When it was newer, it was like a site for for this thread, but instead of actual sightings, it was "for sale" listings.

Today, there's some really neat, unique stuff that shows up, but that signal is completely overrun by all the garden variety Porsche (and other) noise. Victim of its own success.

However, I recognize that others are fascinated with it.

I am way late into this but car#2 is just one strange thing plus they said it's based on a 300m which is even stranger for a 2 seater convertible.

The 300M was front-drive and the roadster is a mid-engine rear-drive vehicle so that makes sense, inasmuch as this roadster makes sense at all

I second (third? nth?) that fewer cars will generate more participation. I say let's pick two a week.
