I used to have a Miata. Great car...at sea level. Not so great at 8k ft. No power.

A friend in the UK used to have a Boxster and I mocked him when I had a 996TT.

Having switched through multiple cars since and tracked my Boxster, I apologized last week.
Drive one and decide.

I bought my Boxster AND Miata because they are the modern versions of the Triumph TR-6 and Spitfire that I owned back in the 80's (and if anyone thinks that a Boxster is unreliable, then they never owned a 1960's or 70's British sports car!)

For me, the Boxster and Miata provide the purest sports car experience on the road today at almost any price.

Also, I looked at a few 2010 Boxsters last weekend at the dealer and a $60,000 Boxster is hardly a "poor man's" car. Funny but no one ever called my BMW X5 a "poor man's" SUV at about the same price?

Ask yourself this question...

My opinion is best illustrated in my recent saga-

First porsche was a 986. Loved it to death, but felt it needed more power
2nd was a 996. Had the power, didn't feel as fun
Bought a Lotus Elise. Had the fun, didn't have ANY practicality
Bought another 996. Had the practicality, still not as fun
Bought a 996tt and tuned the hell out of it. TOO beastly for city streets but still a blast

Wife had a cayenne somewhere in that string of cars

I've literally been through the entire porsche line and have gone full circle back to the boxster for fun driving. I feel like my opinion of the car is much better originated than what a friend thinks he knows. It is an awesome machine.

I have performed simular research as the test driver for PCNA press fleet for 2.5 yrs, as well as most every other new vehicle available for sale in the U.S. & every car made by GM worldwide. My conclusion: Boxster S is the funnest device ever created by man!

My wife says "We think so too". I guess that is why we have 2 Boxsters.
Does that make me a girlyman ?

[papasmurf]

and the way things normally work is that men pursue and enjoy the attention of females, then deductive reasoning says that you would have to be really straight to drive one and really gay not to?

What if you're a lesbian trapped in a man's body ?

A chick's car....It's really for anyone....

A chick magnet....freaking absolutely! Love it as a typical gas station fill up usually ends up in some sort of conversation...

Was down at my local building and codes department the other day and one of the receptionists went crazy...saw the car sitting outside top down and shouted out "WHO HAS THE PORSCHE OUT THERE!!" Me being my humble self I raised my hand and she said "what do you do and are you married?"

Gotta love that man!!!
