thanks for the input.

I know the boxster is faster. the only boxster I've driven quite a bit is my dad's - a 2000 base - and even though it's rated at less hp than the s2k, I swear it feels faster than the s2ks i test drove. for real world driving, the higher torque makes it faster is normal driving.

i'll have to test an S and see how much more I like it vs the base. the base I've driven (dad's) has 18s, and the M030 suspension upgrade...thing is glued to the road - absolutely the best handling car I"ve ever driven, and I've driven some great handling cars...

life is short. that's why I'm looking at two seater roadsters. I have the family car, i have a good back/forth to work beater car - and the one thing I constantly wish for and miss is a two seat roadster. i had a miata in college and loved it. i want that "Fun" with more power. i'm 35, a professional - and while the s2k is a good bargain and reliable - and while I don't think it's nearly as fast 'n furious as something like an EVO or STi, it is kind of boy racerish.. the boxster would be perfect.

thanks again!
