You said it will be mostly a city driver

So stick or TIP?

How long are you going to keep it? Is resale important? And how does it influence the choice of color? (Resale differs by up to 20%!!!)

Are you willing to travel for the car (its still cold up north and deals are better when the streets are covered with white stuff that isn't sand)?

I've had 2 Boxsters. A '99 with 201HP and a '01 with 245. I see no difference in the fun factor.

If I were buying today, I'd definitely buy a base 987 over a 986 just for the hundreds of little improvements they made between models.

Some points of advice...drive several...don't fall in love with one (there are hundreds for sale today)..and get a PPI.

Some additional thoughts here
would apply to buying either.

Get to work, you've missed months of fun since your initial posting.
