Boxster Spyders (practically track ready) are now creeping into the 50's. Get an FRS, pound it. toss it. Put the cash you saved into beaten-down Apple stock.
For that money, but a used Carrera or new Boxster. Or even a Spyder with that tedious snap-on roof. A used Carrera will blow the doors off a BRZ, NO question. Hubby has one and they are phenomenal.
