Did anyone read this month's Excellence magazine? In it, a letter writer says; "The Boxster, which as a convertible will always be a girly/hairdresser car ..." Funny, but no mention of the 911 Cab.

The Boxster gets no respect, I tell ya, no respect.

Yes, I read that also, and I must admit, it did sting for a second.

I'd like to know the age of the OP of the letter, as he makes several references to over-50 Porsche buyers. If he is indeed part of this group, I would think he would appreciate the heritage of the roadster in sport car culture. The MGTC, Jag XK120, Porsche Speedster, Bugeye Sprite, MGA, TR3, MGB, and the Miata were all highly enjoyable kinesthetic machines.

But then again, he could just be another Porcshe a$$h0l3 who gives us Boxster owners a bad name.

Just sayin'...............
