I think people will change their perception about Boxster 986 generation. I know that I have. My first drive in a 986S was around year 2000. The handling was nice but it was a bit tame enginewise. I expected more. A few years later I bought a 993 turbo that I still own. 2 years ago I started to look for a car that was undervalued, reliable and fun to drive. I bought a 550 SE. Maybe I payed more than I would for a standard 986S but it was in very nice condition. Took it on a eurotrip to italy this summer during three weeks. What can I say. It was perfect. Goes under the radar. Fun to drive. Very balaced car in every respect. Even practical for a twoseater. I won't be selling it anytime soon. If people think of the Boxster as a poor mans Porsche. It's their lost. It was the first Boxster and I think someday more will recognize that.
