Morons morons morons.
I can't stand the misconception if you're not spending at least 80K your not driving a "real porsche". Sometimes you get dismissed in a Boxster by 996 Turbo owners.
What does price have to do with it?
This idiot probably has never driven a Boxster.
So many parts on the Boxster are from the 996. I think the Boxster has better manners in the curves. The Boxster for what it is, gets 28-32mpg on the highway, resonable maintenance costs, good insurance rates is a lot of bang for the buck.
I too was a skeptic about the Boxster. It took a Porsche salesman who new his product and a test drive to show me why it is a real Porsche.
Autocrossing against 993s and 996s has impressed me more about the capabilities of the Boxster.
an SUV will never be a sports car. Bells and Whistles, fluff and gadgets does not constitue a real Porsche either.
