One point which isn't usually brought up is that IMHO, the potential for engine failure is baked into the current pricing. I think anyone who has purchased a Boxster in the past 3 years or so has purchased a great car for the money.
Case in point, my wife (an accountant & car buff) figured it's still cheaper to buy a used Boxster (base), drive it hard (enjoy!), IF the engine blows have Flat 6 rebuild it better-stronger-faster, then it is to buy a Lotus Elise. The Lotus was the other car we were interested in, so it was our comparision model.
Just some food for thought.
