Yes I'm quite happy with it, thanks for asking
(I just need to get the plastic rear window fixed...)

To how does it compare to my previous Porsches, I hate to admit it its more like a normally aspirated 944 than a 911... The gears and clutch work like in any modern car and the performance is rather moderate (although it goes easily and smoothly 220 km/h on the Autobahn with the soft top up)...

An old 911 is more rugged and noisy and you really have to drive the car. Compared to an older 911 the Boxster is like an easy Sunday walk in the park, but that's what I was looking for... I'll be using the Boxster as a daily commuter, so I didn't want to struggle with the gears in rush hour traffic and the convertible top is a huge plus in the summer

I just wish it had rear seats, so the whole family could enjoy it Well I guess we need to upgrade the Audi TTQC to a 4-wheel drive 911
