I actually ended up selling my 350Z and got a 98 boxster, with the 'measily' 2.5L engine. Its not as fast as the 350Z in numbers, but i LOVE driving my Boxster so much more than the 350Z. My boxster has taught me that overall balance in a car means much more than simple power. And the boxster is just as fun driven at 30mph than it is at 95 mph. I hated driving the 350 unless i wwas doing 90+mph, which was just unrealistic on public roads.... Welcome to the dark side! :dance:

Of course, tubs are only fun when they're taken above 90mph As a former 350z owner I know what it felt like to sit in that tub of a cabin

You know, as a dealer, I often forget what a pleasure it is to drive a Box S. I had one out today and just had a blast. What a fine machine it is.
