Find an S with a 3.2 in it. Many base Boxster owners wish they'd found one with that larger engine. There's just not enough grunt in the 0-60 times to satisfy city driving. In the twisties, it doesn't seem to matter as much.

Instead of an 04 Box, also look for 03 BoxS's is my recommendation... just a year older, some will have the same low mileage (garage queens abound), and you get that glass rear window that was introduced in 2003.

Bose and Litronics (xenons) are my two must-haves on these cars... and that rear glass window.
