I hope it works for you.

I found that I had a 2002 C4S plus a 2001 Boxster in the garage and for the six or so months that I had both, the 4S got about 500 miles on it. Any nice day that came along, it was the Boxster, top down, of course, that got the nod.

So I had to ask my own self, why am I keeping the 4S? It was indeed the most beautiful car I have ever had (ask Randall if you don't believe me!). Faster? Yup. More style? Yup.

But when it got down to it, which one got driven?

You guessed it. The Box.

So I took the opposite tack from you and canned them both and got a new 987.

I do miss the 4S, but not because of the way it drove. The Box has it all over the 911.

And its top goes down, as it should in a proper sports car.

But what it is is the overall balance of the Box. It's just the way it oughta be.

But if the 4S floats your boat, good for you. It is indeed a great car.

That's what makes this ol' world go 'round, eh?

All the best,

- Mark
