"Though it may not be a classic, or won't be a classic, but it may become collectible, specially when years go by and there are less and less 986 Boxsters running around"

Not to burst your bubble but there ARE tons of Boxsters on the road today and MOST will be maintained fairly well. That is the good news for folks who someday will pay 10K for a nicely maintained Boxster that looks and runs fine.

I don't think the Boxster will ever be a 2500 buck car. I do think it will look a bit like the 944 market EXCEPT that Porsche never created any unique Boxsters, ala the 944 TURBO S and the like.

Those 944s have retained some value and are arguably going to be real collectors.

Time will tell.

In the interim, it is a cheap thrill of a car as a used car!
