But seriously, how long do we have to wait until the 986 reaches the "collector" status of the much ridiculed 914?
There are just too many Boxsters relative to 914's and they certainly don't rust away as quickly :-)

I don't think the Boxster will ever be a collectors car, but it's a great platform and I love mine.
