Because I'd feel better about a 30K-40K Daily driver that I can lease for next to nothing drive 15K a year with full warranty and full service all included. For a few hundred $$ more I can tack on an insurance policy that protects me from lease return issues.
Don't get me wrong. I can't wait to see what Porsche has in store for the BB, but personally? I think they are convoluting the line.
I think they should simply redesign the current Boxster with a new flat four lighter more powerful engine. Make the S turbo charged and call it a day. While they are at it? Lower the price a little...
Let's get back to what the Boxster was supposed to be about. A light, fun, no frills roadster.
