They did a whole show on "two and a half men" recently with the Boxster as a chick car being the punch line.

Hmmmmmmm!

Football player....6'2" 220 lbs... I sit with the seat all the way back and my shoulders barely clear the doors. I fit quite well in the cockpit.

Although I find the design of the latest MR2 less than masculine... the original MR2 was my first car and a blast to drive and own. I tell people the Boxster is like a "grown-up" version of my old MR2. Which isn't too far from true.

Thirty years from now I hope I'll be fortunate enough to have a pristine, fully restored first generation MR2 parked beside my daily driver Porsche.

I can't imagine an inexpensive car brought out by a marginal, GM sub-brand being a threat to anything except the maker (perhaps Mazda) of another inexpensive car?!

I don't understand the defensiveness...

I'm 6'4" and the Boxster fits well enough. Want small and cramped? Try a Crossfire.
