Going back to the the very 1st statement that started this thread
My former boss said the exact same thing to me
"Couldn't afford a 911....blah blah blah "
We could flog this thread all day. I'll admit I bought the boxster because of
1st -> platform....closest thing to a Carrera GT....mid_engine chassis/handling
2nd-> looks....spyder 550...james dean...convertible...love it...looks better than a 911 cab
3rd-> money....sure price is somewhat a factor...couldn't afford a Carrera GT
but the money I didn't spend on buying a 911 turbo...I have a a Gsxr1000
which blows my hair back doing mach XX whenever I take it out...
compare apples to apples....oranges to oranges....
the boxsters has the porsche look and feel IMHO
its not a 911...stating the obvious
911 is a different beast....would I buy one? Maybe / maybe not....money would decide
But then again I've read too many times that boxster owners r happy with there choice
after having driven both 911 & boxster...maybe they r wrong....I think they're right
As for my former Boss....after he was done his rant...I simply asked him
"Ever driven a 911 or boxster?"....his answer was no....hmmmm
Those who have driven a Porsche..... KNOW
Those who haven't....well ....they need to be more informed before speaking out
Take them out for a test drive....drive both boxster & 911
Then. ...maybe what they have to say might b of value
until then....I'll let the jealousy eat them up as I drive around in my boxster
Top down with a big smug look / poop eating grin
