Should have bought a Boxster vice Solstice

[thstone]

I also participte on a few Miata forums and they trash the Boxster relentlessly - mostly about its price and the cost of parts and service. I really like my Miata, its a great car but in no way comparable to a Boxster. Lots of P-car envy out there.

It's really funny comparing the boxster to the miata, it makes the boxster look like a huge car.

That and when I sit in the miata my eyes look straight into the visor.

Even my friend whose wife owns one commented my boxster is much more solid and better built than their 2000 miata.

Miata is a nice car for the money. I owned one. Even a t sea level you had to wait until you saw nobody coming before passing on a two lane road. Lots of fun to drive. But the Boxster is much safer, better built. Just no real comparison.

I wouldn't own a modern Corvette let alone a Solstice. Rather have a Miata.

Comparing a solstice or a miata to a boxster, would be like comparing ripple to a finely vinted wine !
