I've been a motorcyclist for my whole life and a riding buddy of mine has a 98 Boxster. He let me drive it one day after I chided him about it being a 'chicks car' but one ride made me a believer. Then I started looking online at used ones and combing the forums regarding all the ownership aspects (IMS, AOS, water pumps etc.) and finally found a 'sad' little Boxster on the other side of the state. Turns out they were going through a divorce and I got it for a really good price- which is another reason I am driving a Boxster as the cost of entry into getting my first Porsche made Boxster even more attractive. Plus I really enjoy driving this car, it truly is a 'drivers car' steering feel, shifting and braking are all intuitive and honestly the motorcycle has sat in the garage since I purchased about 3 months ago. Plus it is pretty easy to work on and I have enjoyed doing some preventative such as AOS, throttle body clean, spark plugs and tubes/orings and upgraded the radio. It is a hoot to drive and the wife enjoys going with me -plus our dog thinks it is the best car ever- plenty of fresh air to sniff. A Great Car and I am really happy my riding buddy offered me his to test out that day.
