 Check your facts on that one. Parts & maintenance on Boxsters are MUCH more expensive than Miatas. And if you start looking at upgrades for AX, including tires, there's a big delta.  I have some friends with Z06's & M3s that have purchased dedicated miatas for AX and track events because you can buy one, upgrade it, & run it for a season for the cost of a set of coilovers on their primary car.  A miata with mild upgrades, A6's, and a good driver can be very competitive at AX, even the fast 2 mile course we run.
