90% of a Carrera Cab? at 40% of the price?

The Boxster is the benchmark of roadsters. The Cab is not really that type of car.
Its more of "cruiser"
It doesn't handle as well as Boxster and its got that pendulus cornering that some guys love and I personally find unacceptable. And most pro racing teams find it less than desirable as well because every "purpose race built"(intended only for racing) Porsche has been one with the engine in the middle.

So what I'm saying is that the things that the Boxster is lacking when compared to a Carrera Cab are things that it does not need.
