I've owned many, many cars. I don't own them to own them, I own them to 'experience' them. I want to experience them all.
I owned my Boxster for more than 7 years. It was a fine car, despite all it's odd maintenance and design flaws. I owned the Boxster longer than most of my previous cars, and it was fine, competent, mildly fun. But, compared to many other cars I owned, I didn't love the Boxster, never once, and that was one of the primary reasons for selling it. I sold it for a 964 cab, and I love that car, much more like a Sports Car, and being aircooled is a bonus.
I also own a 2002 and an E30. I love those cars too. Everytime I get into my 1-owner, low miles '90 325is E30, I feel like I'm getting into a carnival ride on the Midway... it is an absolute GAS to drive - it can be tossed around like a ragdoll, it's even fun to drive in traffic!
But, as I said, they're just cars. I can always buy another Boxster if the urge strikes me... but I doubt I ever will. I wouldn't dissuade anyone from buying one, but, I doubt I'd recommend it either.
Cheers!

Hey Jim, a.k.a. Andy, a.k.a. MNBoxster, when you posted under the "MNBoxster" screen name, I'm pretty sure you stated that you loved your Boxster too. Are you off your meds again, Jim?
