looking to own a boxster S

[mustang2porsche]

well i did forget to mention it was a purpose built convertible, but i see the convertible part an added charm, but even without it, it would be purpose built none the less. i thought of a carrera, but i heard that it is a bit harder to control on a track which i might see about 3- 6 times a year, and occasional "spirited" driving. just feels like a boxster is right and the initial cost for a boxster is cheaper than a carrera ( in my general area). personally i also think the boxster looks better than a carrera, but that's personal preference. i'm still wondering if i can "drive" the car harder than what most do on the back roads.

If you get one with traction control you can't hardly let it get away from you. If you don't have it, it's like anything else, you have to be able t drive and know when to keep your foot in it and steer out of trouble. I've had both. I prefer to have traction control but my 3.6 Boxster has no nannies, other that anti lock brakes.
