Thanks.
Drove it again today to get it back from the shop. I am so torn with this car. I bought it with the intention of fixing it up and replacing my mini with it but so far it just hasn't spoken to me. Compared to the mini which has a ridiculously loud supercharger whine and backfires like crazy every time you let off the gas, the boxster just feels like its missing something. I mean I honestly can't fault it though. I think it looks better, its slightly faster, it has HALF the mileage, it handles and rides great, and its a damn porsche. I mean look at the thing. It's just objectively a much better car. Its also not going to cost me anything to sell the mini and keep the boxster. I guess I was just expecting to drive it and instantly fall in love with it but my heart is still with the mini.
Someone please talk some sense into me!
