It would see a lot of autocross, and probably a few DE's / trackdays. I live in NYC, so I rarely park anywhere anyway with the Boxster.

I am actually thinking that it would be good to sell the Box before it takes a dive in value next year, while the cayman is already there.

Well, a turbo Cay would be a lot of fun at Limerock, VIR, or Watkins Glen but downright annoying in a SCCA AX. Getting the car to spool up exactly when you want it in 2nd gear requires voodoo. I'm sure TPC did a nice install but I would much rather have a N/A Cayman even at the same price.
