The funny thing is that people very rarely seem to use the term "entry level" when talking about mass produced cars like BMW/Merc/Audi/Porsche....
This term it seems is usually seen when discussing very expensive cars well into the six figures Ferrari, Lamborghini, Rolls, Bentley, etc.
I'm not saying it doesn't apply to mass produced cars, but its seems that the term is nearly always used when discussing a non-Carrera Porsche. Meanwhile when discussing a roadster or roadster coupe from BMW, Audi or Mercedes ...not as common. Good job Porsche marketing dept.

Never been a fan of those sports cars that have the big, long hood and tiny rear end. Drove a Z3, Vette and Miata before settling on my Boxster - it was just night and day. The Boxster blew them all away with it's vastly superior handling.

Yeah, it costs more, but you get what you pay for. And I'll take a slightly higher running bill to keep this smile on my face!
