What did you do with/to your Boxster today?

Took it to an event sponsored by one of the local Porsche dealers at one of the local breweries here in FT Worth. They displayed the new 718's and provided free beer and BBQ, what a great idea! They also gave out pint glasses with the Porsche emblem. I was interested in seeing and hearing the latest Boxster. O course the interiors are very nice and I do like the styling to a degree, but I still believe the original 986 is a timeless design/shape. The 718's are beautiful vehicles but when the S model was started up, well, it was disappointing to say the least. I talked to one of the salesmen and he admits, the 4 cylinder sound is just not the same as our 986's, especially with a sports exhaust. He flipped the sports exhaust switch on but I still was not impressed. That's a good thing though! Now I don't have to go out and buy one The sticker on the base was around $73K and the S model was around $84K. Both had the $3200 PDK option. Honestly, after sitting in these and hearing them, I love my 986 even more. I just can not see why I would get rid of mine I spoke with one guy there who had a one month old Cayman GTS, which was gorgeous in the Sapphire Blue Metallic, very nice. It was a nice evening, good food, even better beer and I have now saved myself a ton of money
