What other cars have you owned ?
I though it would be interesting to see the progression of prior vehicles that led up to your Boxster purchase.
Here’s mine :
Honda CRX – used ( 1st car )
Chevy S-10 Pickup – used ( college )
Mitsubishi Eclipse - new
Honda Accord - new
Jeep Grand Cherokee - new
Porsche 924S - used
Jaguar X-Type - new
Porsche Boxster - used
Mercedes Benz C280 – used
( plus a GSX-R750, 2 Ninja ZX-6’s, HD Sportster, Softail, and Road Glide )

76 Nova hatch
81 Plymouth Omni
88 Pontiac Le Mans
96 Honda Civic coupe
91 Mazda Miata (still own)
99 Boxster
No real theme there the miata was the first car I got that I wanted. Never really thought about the boxster, just one of those things that kinda fell into my lap, though a 911 has been on my someday list for a while.

I think I've these in following order (can't remember what year)
-Mitsubishi Galant (80's)
-Honda Civic (80's)
-Mercury Sable Station wagon (early 90's and kids love the rear seat where they could make funny faces facing the driver)
-Ford Taurus SHO (early 90's, I though It was the best looking car I've owned @ that time)
-Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited (early 90's, white and has gold trimmings  and my first SUV)
*during my outdoor/camping activities, I got this 3 trucks)
-Ford Bronco (late 80's, in Black and silver to reperesent Raider Nation and my first toy)
-Chevy Suburban (early 90's and of course in forest green color)
-Dodge Ram 1500 (late 90's, Black and Silver to match my Bronco when pulling it)
*after loosing my job and start saving, I got rid of the trucks and bought*
-93 Mercury Villager (after 198,000 miles it finally gave up 2 years ago)
-88 Ford Bronco II (donated by one of our church members and we still have it)
Now,
