how many of you guys owned miata before graduating to boxster?

Yep,

Had a 1991 silver Miata with a hardtop.
I did not really upgrade it is more like I totalled the car.
I got rear ended in a snow storm by a Lincoln Navigator while waiting at a stop sign.
The whole trunk was gone !!!!
I had a sore neck for about 2 months.

I'm considering making the switch to a Boxster from my 94 M Edition Miata. I would enjoy the additional space and power of the Boxster, but the Miata is a lot of fun to drive.

I have a 1990 Miata (MX5 in Australia) and recently purchased a 2003 model Boxster S (with 18 inch GT3 wheels). I couldn't part with the Miata so am in the process of convering it to be a club racer. I will keep it road registered so that I can run it in road rallies.
There is no doubt that the Boxster S is a much more competant machine, but the Miata is also a very tactile raw little machine and is allways fun to drive, particularly when you remove the soft edges that Mazda built in so it would apeal to a broader market. I will never sell either they are both motoring classics.
