2012 Boxster

[nefarious986]

Every car has a 'weaklink' especially when you're talking about 99 2.5s. They are 13 year old car that cost about $11k at the moment. Find me one drop top that is a better buy on the use market for that price ? And yes, it has to be a drop top. That's one of the main selling point of a boxster ROADSTER.

In my opinion, even when bought new, the Boxsters provides the best top down driving experience under $120k ( that 2010 Spyder is hard to beat ), and is one hell of a deal on the used market.

Even with that 'slow' 2.5 motor, the car's limit is still beyond the driving limit of your average driver. If clutch smoking tire burning clutch dump red light take off is your thing, please Craiglist your 99.

As far as the 2012 Boxster go, I doubt it will put up huge number or be very 'mod-able'. Unfortunately Porsche has the Cayman and 911 customers to consider and cater to. Some guy who just spent $100k on his Carrera S wont be happy to lose a straight line race to his 'little brother' with just exhaust and ecu.

BTW, this is my second time buying a 986, and your Lotus won't even be considered when I am looking for my next car as its not a drop top and the bug eye praying mantis look doesn't appeal to me.
