Always a Porsche guy since I saw a white 911 as a little kid.
I first saw the Boxster at the 1997 auto show in NY, and instantly liked it. I still have the poster they were handing out, on the wall in my basement since I bought my house in 1999. In 2001 I looked at used models, but went with an NB Miata instead, mostly due to cost. A few years later around 2007 I started looking at 2001's and up , but they were still just a bit too much for a second/weekend car.
I realized in 2010 that I didn't like the 987 restyle, but really liked the facelift 03-04, so started researching and looking seriously. Then I saw one in Seal Gray, and was hooked. It took 2+ years, but finally found a Seal Gray 5-speed with low miles at a good price.
I've never looked back.
