I'll take the 458 Spyder with the leggy blonde in it.

First off, comparing a Solstice to a Boxster would be like comparing Sarah Palin to Sofia Loren ! As far as regrets are concerned, at one point the amount of money that went into mod'in my boxster became equal to, if not eclipsed, the cost of a pristine, low mileage 360 Modena . Oh, well, what's done is done. If things go as planned, sometime in the next year I'll have both (possibly even a 430 instead ) .

She would definitely be better served by a man from Toronto .

356 or Europe model 912 were my dream cars, but I couldn't find good enough for reasonable price, so I made compromise and bought the Boxster. But those are Porsche models... Maybe someday really old VW transporter will be the reason to sale my Boxster.

Now that Ferraris don't come with manual transmissions, there's nothing to keep you interested in driving. So you may as well have a leggy blonde along for company. Even if she's only talking about shoes and the dog she carries around in her purse.

this is where she would have been kicked out of the car. Messing with my mirror......

I have absolutely no regrets buying the Boxster and could not imagine having a different 2 seater sportscar.

Get the Boxster and you can afford the model or sit alone in the Ferrari
