				911 vs Boxster S
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			I was looking at the specs and wondering if the base 911 is considerably faster than the Boxster S and if so, why : 
 
2007 911 Carrera 
$73,500.00 
0-60 in 4.8 sec ( manual ) 
325 hp / 273 ft-lb torque 
3075 lbs curb weight 
 
2007 Boxster S 
$58,910.00 
0-60 in 5.1 sec ( manual ) 
295 hp / 251 ft-lb torque 
2987 lbs curb weight 
 
This equates to the 911 having .1056 hp / lb and the Boxster S having .0987 hp / lb ( a difference of only .0069 hp / lb ) 
 
It the 911 worth the extra $15,000 strictly from a performance standpoint ? 
 
Thoughts ?
