I actually appreciate knowing the exact model and year - it helps immensely with providing accurate advice.

In general, the people on this site post with the least amount of ego in the entire world of automotive internet forums!

Now, if we can just get all of the new people to post pics - THEN I'll be happy!

Too funny....

...you should troll the ADV motorcycle forum.. If you think the "S" posts are class warfare, try the BMW GS vs. KTM Vs. V-Strom Vs. Yamaha S10 arguments.

Don't even get me started on the Harley vs. every other cruiser and liter bike vs. liter bike.

Look man, if you own an "S", you post that your car is an "S". This forum is designed to share info for the greater good of Boxster ownership. Knowing that a poster is describing an "S" is one more data point to help you figure out what the answer is to your Boxster situation.

Enjoy your car, and don't let other people affect your mood.

Cheers!

It's a materialistic class system.
So the 911 is a higher class then the lowly Boxsters
So within our peasant Boxster class we still need a pecking order, S vs Base - 981 vs 87,86 - 987 vs 986
I didn't write the rules , that's just the way it is.
My 4 door car is the lowest level Kia Optima. I just can't understand why anyone would buy a higher level Optima. It's a Kia Optima for Pete's sake
But I absolutely love that I can get 36-38 mpg with 5 people and a full trunk and their warranty

But fortunately, while I may be on the bottom of the Kia Optima class, at least I have a Boxster S. Did I mention I HAVE A BOXSTER S, not a boxster base
Oh I would give my first born to get up to the 987 S class
Oh and I think black is only 24 points. Seal Grey is 25. So a 2003 S Seal Grey = 100. Jamesp you come in at 99. Sorry, maybe you can get it repainted and move up a class
