Thumbs up Boxster options!

You really need to ask yourself what you really want to do with the car. Having owned 5 Porsches, including 2 911's with the optional Sports suspension and 18 inch wheels, I can say that this combination certainly isn't for everyone. In fact, my wife refused to ride in my C4S because in her view the ride was unacceptably harsh. For an everyday driver like I have now, I prefer the standard suspension and 17 inch wheels. In fact during the winter I mount 16 inch wheels with the snow tires and I must admit this gives a much smoother ride. So, if you plan on driving 200 to 300 miles each week like I do, you may want to think twice about the Sports suspension with the 18 inch wheels. This is a great track set up, but pretty unforgiving on the streets. Good Luck with your purchase.
