y not take a look at an Evo. now those things are fast, and cheap to get power out of, and doesnt look as ugly as an STI

Nope 14 at 100%, hes from Canada, but hes bought motorcycles and A $30,000 Mercedes from the usa, and the sellers have said he paid on time and very professional, so i think hes a good buyer.

I personally like the Boxster, but I also think the Mini Cooper S, Volvo C30, and some Subaru's are nice. I would have gotten a MCS or a C30 but then I saw the Boxster. Subaru's are out because they have no two-door version.
Just my $0.02!

Good for you.

I hardly know you at all, but from your recent posts, trying to race the car and your interest in the GTO, it appears that you want a car that does well at the dragstrip. The Boxster (even an S) is not really suitable for that, so I am glad that you are selling it. "Muscle" cars are the ones that are most suitable for the type of application that you desire. GTO would be OK, a used Vette would work, a used Mustang GT should be within your budget as well. The Subaru WRX Sti as well as the Mitsu Evo have posted 0-60 times of around 5s, and they both are AWD to boot. Go drive them all and see what you like - you will have to live with that car, not the people giving their opinion (esp. on a boxster board).

Good luck.

It was me who said, errrr "thought" that the other day. Don't mistake what I thought as I'm really rooting for you. I have a '99 in mint cond w/ only 29K on the clock and I'm pondering selling next spring...... after the 1st beautiful 80 degree weekend w/ nothing bu sunshine .

If you do get $22K for yours, heck I might let you sell mine and pay you commission since it'll be more than I paid for it 2 years ago.

Good luck and I'm sure you'll keep us posted.

PS- good call passing on the "new" goat. Much better options out there that won't depreciate too much
