To summarize,

Yes Boxter sales are down this year, clearly affected by the sweet new Cayman and the cooling economy.

Do people settle for a Boxter? Some do, but I believe most got it because they wanted one. I spun off a part of my business in 05 and after paying off some debt still had a wad of cash left over. I invested most of it and treated myself to a shiny little used Porsche with the rest. I considered a new one, a 911TT, I considered a Ferrari, a Z06, a Saleen Mustang, I got what I wanted. I don't need to impress anyone. I got a Boxter for me.

If I had unlimited funds would I still drive a used Boxter...probably. It's not what you make it's what you keep. Bill Gates daily driver is a 10 yr old 911.
