Help! Stop me from buying a 911!

OK, like many of you older guys, I first fell in love with Porsches as a teenager, and it was a 911. I’ve always wanted a Porsche, which meant a 911. Well now that I’m older and wiser, with some disposable income, I’ve been looking to buy a 2001-2004 Boxster S, and I’m looking to spend around $15-20k. I’ve been reading this forum for 6 months, and know all in the ins and outs of getting a good Boxster.
But then I made a mistake. While on Craigs list, I typed in Porsche instead of Boxster just to see what was out there, and I started to see that for the same $15-20k, I could get a 1980’s 911 like I’ve always wanted. Like the one I found today below:
--------------------------------------------------------
1984 Porsche 911 with 62K Original Mi. $17,000
The car is in perfect mechanical shape. It shifts like butter, drives smooth, and hauls ass.
The dash is in perfect condition, no rips or tears on the seats, no accidents or rust.
The Fuchs were taken off and restored they look brand new, 4 new tires put on.
New Clutch, clutch cable, and a couple of more things.
Comes with the original toolkit, spare.
Original Blaupunkt Radio
Its got original paint, but the clear coat is going on the roof / hood.

The attached photo is of the car listed above.
So, tell me why the Boxster is the best choice for my first Porsche!
