Say what you will about how the 911 compares to the Boxster in terms of performance comparisons, but many people wind up with a Boxster simply because it's cheaper than a 911.

And there's no shame in that....ultimately, most of us buy what we can afford and the 911 is beyond the reach of many people.

I know one person very well who could buy a 918 but elected to buy two Boxsters and older used ones at that. Sometimes it is about a car that speaks to you. Sometimes it is buying enough car.

I could never use more than a 914's 85HP. But golly it was fun pushing it to its limits.

And I never heard anything but nice things about those 986s.

Maybe I knew nicer folks, and maybe I don't have a mine is bigger complex.
