I've commuted in a Boxster

Carried clients in one, grocery shopped in one, etc. Just got back from a 50 miles up and 50 miles back jaunt over a mix of city and country roads with wife in the car. Weather was raining like crazy, car was snug and dry.

I do have a back up SUV for winter and put the Boxster away for 2 months just so I don't have to have wheels and snow tires and so I have a 5 person car for the occasions.

My Boxsters have averaged less than one unscheduled repair each year (none disabling) and $20 a month unscheduled maintenance costs. This at the 6+ years and 50K miles point.

I'm 6' 220 lbs with a very tall torso.

Longest trip yet was 310 miles one way but I wouldn't hesitate to go much longer.
