2011 Boxster Spyder

[pcw]

Hi All,

New to the forum and have a question. I have never owned a Porsche but have always loved the classic lines and the looks. I am in a position now to afford one and just wanted to know your thoughts regarding a Boxster S or a Spyder. It will not be a daily driver and I live in Norcal where from May to Oct it hardly ever rains and the rest of the time it's warm enough with a little sun to drive a convertible.

I have read a few threads about the 2011 Spyder and some of your thoughts. I can understand the opinions about the Spyder being a daily driver with it's less than protective "tarp" but if the car was more of a occasional driver, would you feel differently? I also like the uniqueness of the Spyder and really the differences in price between the Boxster S and the Spyder isn't that critical to me.

So I guess the real questions are, if you didn't have to use it as a daily driver and the 62K wasn't really a factor, would you have one in your garage???

Thanks for your time,

PCW
