With my 2001 Boxster base I know what I have. No real surprises in the last 1.5
years of service. 50k miles and feels like new. I drive it year round in snow and ice. Why would I want to subject anything more expensive to that kind of abuse? Besides I am not sure what the next will be - some kind of 911 or a newer Boxster - 2009. Good question though. I am always looking at the sale ads. Spring is here and lots of P cars come up for sale.
