I like the way you think!

hey guys you are all starting to head towards left field. I do not have any problem with my 03 S s performance , it is a little slow off the line but once the revs build it's plenty good. the handling with the mid-engine layout is hard to beat and the brakes are very good.
I always thought a true sports car had to have 3 equal traits. power=handing=brakes. there is no doubt that the boxster is a great sports car.
the mustang 6 or gt do not have the balance therefore they are not considered . The corvette ZO6 a nice car but has that 50 year old plus thing attached to it and every thing i've read about it says the same thing , great on the track bad on the street and some cheap ass seats. the lotus is great but has no daily comforts and the evora is out of the question , the cayman beats that car anyway. The EVO, good car. it's got the balance but got that ****************ty ricer image and is kind of ugly.
the problem with porsche is simple , the cars cost to much, break to often are super pricey to modify and sometimes they just blow up. so what can ya do ?

So how many miles do you have on your Boxster and how much do you want for it? I have an 03 and am thinking of upgrading from to an S. I will help you unload it for quick.

Just cuz we don't need them doesn't mean we don't have them.
Here's my slightly customized Colt Combat Elite in .45 ACP, complete with Dwyer group-gripper with full length guide rod, Chip McCormick titanium trigger, extended mag well, Wilson 7-round mag, and cocobolo grips. Yee-ha.
You might be surprised to find out just how many Canadian gun owners there are, despite our government's best efforts.

That's funny because I have a few American friends ask me on what handgun they should get.
