What are your age and profession?

[tnoice]

32. I am a registered financial advisor.

2004 Boxster S
24,000 miles.

I am painfully aware of the lost opportunity cost of owning a Porsche, however that can be saved a bit when one uses the rapid depreciation of a used European car in their favor.

47 YO. Own and run an Executive recruiting company specializing in software sales and marketing execs nationwide.

Second Boxster - first was some 12 years ago, bought new and returned via Lemon Law. Went through two BMW M3 conv (loved them but wanted a Boxster again). Found a perfect MY2000 here locally and stole it from the guy so here I am again.

MY DD is a MY2000 Honda Insight (all stock)-getting between 60-85mpg... looks like an egg but damn it feels good getting 600-800 miles per tank with only 10 gallons!
