I dunno, one is a Roadster, the other a Sport Coupe'/Sedan, that's an extremely significant difference right there. As such, any similiarites, it would seem to me, are coincidental.

Both are great cars, but neither is a Giant Killer, in terms of American motorsport - off line acceleration, ¼ mile ETs, etc. If that's your thing, be prepared to swap Pinks with modded 5.0 Mustangs, 350Zs, and stock Vettes, and Vipers.

It may all boil down to practicalities. If you need a Coupe'/Sedan, go with the Beemer. If a Roadster fits your lifestyle, choose the Boxster. In the end, only you can say.
