Thanks - a number of people have recommended a Miata or S2000, but I don’t have the enthusiasm for them that I have for an old Boxster. It’s mostly the (problematic) flat-6 engine which is the big draw, and there’s something timeless about an old Porsche (no disrespect to the Miata intended as it’s a classic too)

The car will not be my daily driver, it will be something I’d plan to drive just for fun, and in some ways I’m trying to provide an old Porsche with a good home. There’s something just unbelievably organic about them that’s missing in the 981/991 and later cars

I’ll continue to search online for cars and these pages for useful information
