for a daily driver or a more "practical" car, a WRX, STi is surely a great car. lots of power, great AWD grip, and back seats/trunk.
but most of us didn't get a boxster for DD or practicality. we got it for fun.
in the fun dept, I think the boxster is hands down better.
in defense of the STi/WRX and other little turbo econo/ricer rockets - they are fast little cars that can keep up with $$$ cars.
i just know that I drove an EVO X and to me it wasn't "fun". it might have had impressive specs, but after I drove it, I ddn't want to buy it. as a point of comparison, i test drove a mazda RX8 the next day - a car with half the power, no torque, but an amazing gearbox, high redline, and true sports car soul - and after I got out of the car, I wanted to take it home. it was SO much fun to zip around in even though it really didn't go that fast.
the boxster is the ultimate "fun" car - at least to me.
