I wouldn't drive an older 'vette if you gave it to me. Sampled several before I re-entered the Porsche world. Was actually negative about Porsche then based on my 914 experience and the lack of dealer service I had experienced (granted 1970-1972).
Vette: Huge ponderous feel. Too much power. Build quality and interior materials sub-par.
Boxster: I just fit and it felt right. I never felt any lack of HP.
But to prices. Why should we expect the current Boxster to be priced anything near what the older ones were? Nothing else is. Yes it is a shock to go to the configurator and see the $90k+ most would order. (Mine is $100k+.) But if you order a car with features similar to what came on a 2004 Boxster, the increase isn't that much beyond inflation. I think it is just we want more in our cars like navigation, fancy adjustable suspensions, electronic nannies, etc that our older cars didn't have.
