definitely get the Boxster S.

My sister has a 350Z and JBS is right, they're two entirely different cars. The Box just feels more refined.

Ferrari to Z sounds like moving from a mansion to a trailer, sure it's cheaper but....

I drove a 350Z and didn't like it much. I'm very happy with my '00 986S. Seven years older than the 350 but a better car in everyway.
The only Z-car I would consider is a '74 240Z or a '78 280Z.

I'm essentially looking for the best bang for the buck. The Z is out, I don't think I would ever be happy with that as a purchase. My biggest decision now is 03/04 986 S for hopefully $20K or spend closer to $30K (asking prices are actually 33-35K) for an 05 S 987. I tend to over to over think everything and now am concerned about the IMS failure in an 05 987 S.
