Yea, I see a lot of boxsters in my area. Specially my neighboor's Ferrari Enzo behind my house. Effin sweet :dance: This was taken last year with my crappy camera. He also got a Ferrari 360 and he drove it during the winter time. Guess what, he made a 360 turn in the middle of my intersection around my hood. He was just playing around with it.

Boxster in my area is like seein bigfoot. People are funny they just assume they cost 100k. When I tell them I paid 20k they are like, "damn I paid more than that for my Grand Am."

WOW $50k for a Expedition,what a fool. Could you pull off a slighty used Cayenne S for that price?

Well, it seems someone opened a Boxster flood gate this weekend around here (Orlando FL). I’ve had mine now for a little over two months and have seen two or three in that time. This weekend.. each time I went out on the road I saw at least tow Porches. I know I saw at least seven (different) Boxsters this weekend.

Next week he will be jawing about how much gas costs and blaming "BIG OIL"
Clueless, yes.

I just moved to a gated communtiy in Bergen County New Jersey.
One other Boxster a half block away, A blue Cayman, Saw a C4S parked across the street and a 928 to the other side, oh and a 968 parked right in front of my own place this weekend. But no Cayennes yet. Weird..
I only drive weekends really so I'd say I see Maybe one other Boxster a day.
I usually travel south to the Beaches or North to NYC.
911's are much more common than Boxsters and Cayennes the most common Porsche by far. As far as CaymanS so far I've only counted two in the wild.
(not including the two Ray Catena Porsche lent out during a PCA autocross).
I've had the Boxster since late 04 and still get at least two comments every time. My 986S trunk badge has prompted a few questions of "is that a Boxster or 911?"
Little kids seemed to be the most impressed they just stare like this
oh and An early 20's girl pulled over next to me in Her Acura TSX the other night and said I had the 'sexiest car around". errr thanks.

There are at least two here in the capitol area of Michican. I'm one of them. The other is a yellow one zipping about with a smile.
2000 Arctic Silver.

I've never seen a boxster in the Boston financial district but I have seen 1 on the freeway going home on occasion, but that's about it.
I've seen more 911's than boxster.

Here in Upstate NY (Rochester) I see soooooo many Cayennes on the road. Boxsters and 911's are relatively unique. Swear I see the same 4 of each at least once a week.
Corvette C5's all over the place... and C6's are startting to become more prevalent.
Actually saw my first Lotus Elise as it passed me on the highway at about 100 mph. Seriously low and tiny. Almost kit car like... but cool.
