As I mentioned, I have a 986 S and a Z4M coupe. This is, IMHO, the most accurate and proper comparison between the two. Courtesy of TopGear:

These cars are so apples to oranges that to compare them is kind pointless. Pretty easy to find limits on the BMW (when the back end breaks loose) Zero to sixty is a nice stat but how much speed you take off to make a corner is much harder to engineer. BWM is pretty to look at but I love the used, worn away bar of soap look of the Boxster. Come on down to Indy and we can have a road race and a beer or six.
