I like riding outside. :cool:

Why did you choose the Cayman over a Boxster?

Cayman's cost more. Please explain.

We got 2.79% for 4 years. 15% down. BOA. I expect interest rates to rise...especially after the 2012 election. Meanwhile I am earning 8%+ on my investments. Life is good.

Exactly.

We stopped at a stoplight and a woman hit us doing 50 mph. Knocked us into the intersection. Totaled Ruby. We could have been killed instead of minor injuries.

Ruby

Indeed.

I do get attached to cars tho. Our 84 986 S was totaled after 4 years (some woman hit us at 50 mph while stopped at a light). We really loved that car.

I am Confused

Wikipedia shows the Boxster as a 986 model until 2004. Then they show the Boxster as 987 from 2005 onwards.

But they also show the Cayman as a 987. Is this correct?

I have been keeping track of the snow here since December 23. So far 151". We live at 8000 ft. and have been able to take a sports car out almost every week. The scenery is not too bad either. ;)
