I actually don't feel that the Boxster is really missing much compared to the 911 on the "car" level, i.e removing any 911 star power or allure.

First, the interiors of the Boxsters are almost always fairly close to the 911 each generation, the 911 may have a few extra gauges and better seats, but for the most part, they seem fairly and practically similar.

2nd, I'm really comparing more to the base 911 - as obviously the bigger engine 911's have what the Boxster and S don't have: A lot of power. (Especially the turbo) But then, money enters the fray and it's no longer a feasible comparison.

For the everyday guy, driving around town and the fun backroads, I think a Boxster is really sufficient. It may not have the 911 brand, but who cares - it drives in some regards even better.
