01 5 speed, purchased it 3 years ago with 57k, now at 96K and used as daily drive.
looked at Miata, Z3, Z4 and S2000 - no power, too tight, no trunk and way too tight- then a seal gray Boxster >>> Just right!
Dealer gave us OK to drive it for couple of days but it it only took a short drive; out of the lot, around a corner and half way down a freeway onramp to make our minds up. Got off the next exit and back to the dealer and purchased it.
This car satisfied my 2nd mid life crisis, it replaced another open top vehicle - motorcycle.
The top is always down, only up to stretch the fabric and to clean it. even drove it in light rain. When it really rains (in Southern Cal??) I drive a hard top. Hard top vehicle is 330 ZHP and is a great car but its been in the garage with a battery tender attached and has seen all of 400 miles in 3 years since the Boxster came into the picture.
only mod = 987 shifter. great car without any mods (for me).
