I have both a Boxster and a 914, which you can see at:

The two cars make for an interesting comparison. In day-to-day driving, I vastly prefer the Boxster. Modern cars offer much better driveability, performance, features, and safety. However, from time to time I crave the more visceral experience of driving a 914 or an early 911. The connection with the road is direct, the experience is immediate.
