No plans to sell the Boxter. Need to have something to take grocery shopping.
Arrives in a week or so.

Congratulations.
Which transmission does it have?
I've been looking into 355s for a long time, they're the best looking of the truly super V8 cars and Ferraris have never been so attainable, price-wise. I'm not a big fan of the looks of the follow-ons and the predecessors had a few too many "quirks" for me.
The big thing for me is the engine out service. Every 5 years, no matter how many miles you put on the car, you should have the timing belts and other preventative related things replaced at a cost of about $10K. I just can't bring myself to buy a car that will cost me $2k a year in maintenance.
Has your car had it's valve guides and exhaust manifolds replaced?
