I think it is apples & oranges...IIRC in 93 or 94, they sold less than 4000 cars total.....people thought they were ripe for a takeover big time. The 968 and the 928 were phased out in 95. The Box debuted 93? and was a reality for 97, right? When did the Cayenne start? What the Box did was give back to Porsche the entry level car sale $$ they had lost from the 944 to 968 transition, to provide enough additional funds to avoid takeover, develop the 996, and the Cayenne. When the Cayenne came, Porsche was back on its own feet, because of the Box.

There were less then 5000 968's brought into the US over 4 years. How many boxsters went in the 1st 2 years? alot more than 5000. The original Boxster price matched the outgoing 968 coupe, like 395 or somewhere about there.
