Great advice, and it's actually why I now have a Boxster. I went through a Miata, a BMW, and a Lexus SC430 in little more than a year. My neighbor has a Maserati spyder, and I was looking at everything from older an older Ferrari to a Lotus, a couple of friends have Carrera cabs, and none of those made any impression on my wife. She thinks Ferraris look like Mustangs. She did like the Maserati Qutroporte in "Entourage" because it had 4 doors. But she likes the Boxster because it "looks like a car that Grace Kelly would drive - it doesn't look like a sports car". I told her not to ever say that around other Boxster owners

Thanks for all the replies. I decided to go with the '02 911 Cab over the '05 Boxster S. I have always wanted a 911 and I hope the 40 extra hp will help with the tiptronic. I will probably look for a manual Boxster S once I get past this deal with her.
