I've been reading these posts and of course I have to add my perspective. I've owned 13 cars, 3 trucks, and 5 motorcycles in my lifetime. I've had to fix them all from time time to time. (no exeptions). they all break down. I have owned the '99 Boxster since 7/11. I have already done the brakes and replaced the top. It's not any harder to work on than any other car, but looks much better and puts a smile on my face every time I drive it.
Exotic? to some..maybe. To me...a great style that commands attention. And it's woth every penny.

Agreed. Best bang for buck in terms of impressing people. There is no other vehicle that will impress as many people for the same price a used Boxster goes for. It's definitely an inexpensive "look at me" vehicle.

Not so impressive with a smashed windshield, and dented body panels from hitting a pedestrian, right?
