No way would I pay 90K for a boxster . At that point, you're into low mileage 360 Modena territory .

Yes, I've seen 360's in the 70K range. However, newer, low mileage ones are in the 80-90k plus range . My goal over the next year is to pick a pristine 2004 Challenge Stradale .

Anyone who's half knowledgeable will avoid the F1 transmission like a plague. Hence the low asking price.

By 2002 Ferrari had pretty much worked out all of the bugs with their F1 transmission. And, most of the f1 problems associated with earlier 360's were corrected with software updates as well .

It's still an automatic.

I drove a Maserati Coupe with the newer F1, it's still jerky and not much fun if you're not doing acceleration runs.
