but not cheaper than my old Miata! I think the cost of parts for aftermarket suspension, exhaust, intake, body work, and wheels, which all made it one hell of a fun car and EXCELLENT learning tool, was a wee fraction of the cost of the Boxster's similar upgrades.... with not really anymore more driving fun. Porsche parts are very over-prioced. Porsche after-market parts are severely over-priced.
