Wow, your intro sounds so similar to mine. I used to own a 96 M3 and loved that car until I sold it to purchase a Hummer. After owning the hummer for a few years I needed something that handled better (and was better on gas) so I purchased my 97 back in September of 09. I love the car and you do need to look carefully. There are several out there (or at least in Utah where I moved from) and so I would use caution while narrowing down your search.

Hope you enjoy it once you find it. It is definately NOT an M3 but the fun factor is so much more with this Boxster. You will love the sound and the handling IMHO is impressive and better than my M3 was.
