I meant a 0-60 my civic is faster but mine with a stock computer tops out at 129, never cranked the boxster up that fast cause I've always got the top down. And as I said its modified (and even the new crazy fast civic type-R is geared for a track, not top end.) The sport model civics are always geared for track, never for top end. People harp on Civics all the time, didn't know if you were one of the mustang dudes scoffing at my car, we Honda guys get ragged on all the time. And yes they made a 1.5L civic break 200mph on the flats too, hehe.

I used to own a CRX; it was a lot of fun, and I would never rag on any Civic owner. I have never owned a Mustang. I currently have a 2006 Boxster S.

So, I take it you disagree with this web site: Honda Civic Type-R EP3 acceleration times - AccelerationTimes.com, which shows Civic R 0-60 at 6.5 seconds? If you are talking about a 1996, 204hp Boxster, then, yes, I will give you that the Civic is as fast or a hair faster. But late model Boxsters are closer to 5s, and Spyders are 4.6S.
