"Horsepower challenged"

[silver-S]

I assume that any one of us here could stroll into the nearest Porsche dealer and legitimately say "I'm thinking of trading in the Boxster. Let me try a 911 to see if I like it, will you?"

I test drove a '05 997 Carrera and was so disappointed. It was a Tip and felt like a 'normal' car to me. My Boxster sat lower, rode more firmly and felt more 'Porsche- like'. I loved the alcantara roof lining though and when I drove over some train tracks I could feel the added strength of the roof rails.
