Buy a 996 TT and keep the Boxster. That said I prefer my 3.6 Boxster over my TT on twisty back roads.

I'm considering keeping the Boxster and getting an older 911 (or highe mileage 996) That would be the best of both worlds! I only have a three car garage though, so if I go that route my daily driver (Audi A4) will have to sit in the drive all winter my wifes Audi A4 would take the third spot in the garage so that's something to think about too!

I'm torn between a 997 S and a 996 TT.

The IMS is not an issue with the TT but a small concern with the 997 S.

I test drove a 2002 TT and was grinning for the rest of the day. Now I need to test drive a 997 S.
