51, took a year off work and drove my 9 year old around to all of his activities
In the best physical shape of my adult years
He doesn't say it but 4 years later, my son still gets a kick out of being dropped off at school in a Porsche. Especially top down days.

This will raise the curve
Turning 72 in july and driving the 2000 base boxster keeps the mind young.

51 and bought my slightly used '03-S 4 years ago. Had Triumph sports cars my entire driving life life until 2 years ago. Wanted a better handling, faster car that was invented after cup holders and heated seats ;-). Love driving the Porsche.

Waited too long
I am 67 now and when I got my first Porsche - a 2001 Base Boxster. Shouldn't have waited so long. It is a fine car. Although I've never been without a sports car. Had a trouble free first generation RX-7. After that car I decided I wanted a sports car that went VROOM instead of WHIRL. Then I had two Jaguar XKEs. Talk about maintenance and problems. Compared to them the Boxster is a breeze.
