I suppose if you need PDK you can only save $50,000 instead of $70,000.
Just look at those numbers I just wrote!

I like the car but don't care if it's $80,000 or $100,000 expensive. Everybody knows the Boxster is no second-class car. For me, unlike my other vehicele purchases, the Boxster is a "toy" and will likely never rise to a "need to be new" purchase. I'll likely have a 100K box when it costs $50,000. But I applaud anyone ordering a new one.

HaHa OK What is it that makes you wish for me to get ripped off on my next car or have it turn out to be a POS? You keep this up Mr. Danger and I'll buy the modena just to piss you off.

Just to change the subject for a second, on the flip side I just built one basically equivalent to my 2000 'S' that cost $53,323 including about $2500 in options only. It was purchased in 1999, I guess if we want to call that a poor Porsche we can, seems like a lot of money back then. I built the following and it is only ~$12k more, I don't know how much inflation or income increase there has been in that time in general, but I don't think that is a large increase. Maybe we are still in poor mans Porsche territory  . One could have easily created a 80k Boxster with options back then I would think.
Oh and this is the first picture of the car I like yet!! Actually doesn't look so bad, I'll take one.

Ahh great, you're going to get a letter from command now, you exposed Tennille as an important international operative!! The captain, was designed to "toss off the scent", in real life the only thing he was captain of was the pussy whipped club; that's why he was forced to participate in muskrat love.
