the 550 more like the Gt3? hmm...
I guess I'd have to take a closer look at the 550's specs.
But the Boxster(mine) and JD's spyder look like roadster cousins.
(especially the 2005's lights and rounded hood line).

and as you pointed out the 550 was big bucks, and my Boxster S cost the original owner $60K. I guess if some one were dreaming of owning a Porsche, considering a new Boxster wasn't really a viable choice. But convertibles have been far and away Porsche's best sellers.
