I hear you Perfectlap. I sometimes think that this will be my first and last Porsche.
At the age of 67 I am enjoying this car. My wife is much more practical and thinks the sun rises and sets on her 2002 Camry. Her car costs little to run and mine more. She reminds me often.
I did lust after a 911 but somehow the Boxster has filled that void and I have not been disappointed. I know my Box and know what it needs. It has never failed to start in cold or warm weather, never left me stranded. The 99 Miata was not a good cold weather car as the battery was too small and had to be plugged in to heat the engine block.
This is as good as it gets and it is very good.
