I'd wager the SRT-4 heavily modded would be considerably faster (in a straight line) than a Boxster S. But it's NOWHERE near the same quality automobile.
I'm about to go from a Hyundai Tiburon (which honestly is a pretty nice car for it's price) to a Boxster. The base Boxster probably has 50hp and maybe 20-30ft-lb on the stock Tiburon V6, but probably only about 20hp and little if any torque over mine with the few mods I have on it. I don't really care if the Boxster isn't quicker... I'll like the quality.
And it will go nicely with my 1969 911 Targa!

Thanks guys for keep ing thread full of info...Actually I've been reading this forum a whole lot and getting all the info that I can...
My SRT was putting down about 350ish to the wheels, yes it was heavily modded and I did enjoy the car....I know that the Boxster wont be no where as fast as my SRT but Im not going for all out straight away performance....Even though I had a complete suspension upgrade on my SRT, Im sure the Boxster is going to handle better and yes, quality is a WHOLE lot better then the SRT...expecially the interior....I dont plan on modding the Porsche, mainly I'll be in Law school and wont be able to afford it....But I do plan on adding some 19's, I've always wanted rims with a nice lip....Im aiming for and Boxster S but they seem a couple grand out of the price range so I have to shop around....OH by the way the insurance is cheaper then my SRT..... :dance:
