Hello people,
I got my first boxster experience this weekend, an '03 Tip(2.7) with the optional 18's. I was prepared to be underwhelmed, my daily driver is a RennTeched C32amg and my play/weekend cars have been everything from a Z06, to several Evo's and an '03 Cobra. The Boxster is going to replace my girl's '98 sl500. Anyway, I was very impressed by the Boxster, from the quality feel, to the sweet intake/exhaust noise, to the absolutely balanced handling. I also thought the car felt extremely well biult. The 2.7 tip is not as doggy as I thought it would be. While it is soft off the line, once under way it's very peppy and should be a good daily driver for her. We thought about an "S", but given that the car is going to be a commuter I figured it's really not worth it plus this base car is alot of fun. The Boxster is a very nice car indeed, I have to admit I enjoyed driving it more than the 911's I've sampled.
