Don't smack me for asking this -- as you can see, I intentionally left out 'neutral' -- meaning that I'm curious what you think the Boxster's handling leans to the most.

Hi,
The Boxster, like most manufactured Street Cars, has some understeer built in. This is safer for the general public than either a neutral or oversteering setup.
But, this can be a complex set-up. The car can be changed somewhat just by differing tire pressure or tire size. It's one of the reasons the rear tires are larger than the fronts. A Neutral setup on the Boxster will be a handful for the unintiated or inexperienced driver - a lot less forgiving. Hope this helps...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
