this is why I am looking at them. I looked at the S2000 and test drove one, really like it, but compared to a Boxster, it's just not as nice. you can get used Boxsters for the same as a used s2000 and the Boxster is such a nicer car.
the VTEC of the s2000, to me, is annoying. the boxster motor as you wind it up to 7000 is MUSICAL. the sound is seriously intoxicating.
I'm in a situation where I think I'd rather have a Boxster S, but I'm also price conscious. I'm married, kids, and this is a toy car. I want to get the maximum fun for the cheapest price. If I can find a base model that is nicely equipped for under $15k, but a really nice S model is going to run me 20k+, then I'd just assume save 5-8k and get a base model.
my dad is going to be selling his 2000 base and so i'm sort of temped to get his if he will sell it cheap enough.
