Thinking of buying a Porsche Boxster and haven't a clue.

[Disaster]

I went from a '92 Miata to a '98 Porsche. I put more money into the Porsche in 1 year than I did into the Miata in 4. Having said that the Porsche is much more luxurious. Less road noise. Better acceleration. The frunk makes it a practical road trip car, unlike the Miata.

Having said that I wouldn't recommend a Porsche Boxster unless you could do maintenance yourself or know a good independent mechanic that works on Porsche's and did a PPI with a qualified mechanic.
