Boxster a "True" Porsche ?

I agree the idea of posting a rebuttal on another board is pointless. When people project their own prejudices so strongly, you'll be burning needless energy and likely just fuel them more.

If you are truly interested yourself, try a test drive of the Boxster & S2000 and compare them to your own experience with the Acura. They are all good cars, and the designers of each made trade-offs that will suit different people to a greater or lesser extent. I liked the S2000, but didn't want one after driving the Boxster. I can say from experience that I was able to catch up with and pass many 911 drivers on the track - their cars could outrun me in the straights but I could carry more speed out of the turns in the Boxster (base stock vs. base stock)... a trade-off of balanced handling vs. pure power.
