So hypothetically, if given either car, as a gift from the Porsche gods, to drive and love, but never sell, which one would you still pick? (you couldn't borrow against it either, or profit nor suffer financially from the car too) All maintenance is taken care of for 300k miles, then it dies and goes to Pcar heaven...

Money really isn't the issue. I started looking because I have sold a nice piece of real estate and made a tidy profit on it so I thought of treating myself. I was actually looking to add this to the stable unless the dealer was to offer me a stupid trade in allowance. After driving the turbo and thinking about it for a few days there is no way I would trade in the Boxster now. The turbo is just and incredible machine but I think the Boxster is way more fun to drive. Plus I would miss all the kids screaming at me when I am driving around town. I actually am in your hypothetical I think I would still keep the Boxster, that's my point.

But of course I still don't want to pay for the turbo!!! I want it for nothing but they call that grand theft auto and then I'll have Matt to worry about!!

I had a 2002 TT in my inventory last year. I did not care for the car all that much.

Just my opinion.
