Perfectlap,

I couldn't have said it better myself !

Before the Boxster, I had a 1987 Porsche 924S.

I great little car, just a little too old and a little too slow.

After I bought the Boxster, I thought that when I paid it off I would start looking for a 911 Carrera.

I recently drove a 1999 911 Carrera and I think I like my Boxster better.

The Boxster is plenty fast, handles like a dream, and you can't beat the drop top.

Not sure if I would give up a mid-engine convertible for a rear engine hard top.

( considering that a 911 Carrera Cabriolet runs about $37k more than a base Boxster )

With the new Boxster S coming in at 295 hp, I can't imagine when I would need the extra HP of the 911.

IMHO...

Nick
