Since most of the used Boxsters I see out there are driven far less than 10K per year, gas increases are really pretty insignificant. Let's assume 10K miles per year and 20mpg. That's 500 gallons per year. Increase the price of gas from $3 to $4 per gallon and that's an extra $500 per year or $42/month. If you drive a little smarter (accelerate from stop lights more relaxed and don't tailgate and lift earlier when slowing down) you can probably decrease your fuel consumption by 20%, reducing your yearly fuel costs by $200
