How to make your Boxster feel REALLY fast.

We just got back from holiday in New Zealand, which I have to say is a beautiful place. We toured around but rented the cheapest car we could which was a 'nice' new, probably 1300 cc Automatic Toyota Yaris.
It's hard to describe just how slow this thing was, but you'd need to plan for weeks ahead if you were brave enough to try an overtake something. What was even more upsetting was that the roads on Bay Of Islands were some most lovely twisty empty Boxster friendly roads I've ever driven on, except I was in a Yaris.

We got back and yesterday I took the Box out for the first time in two weeks, and floored it to the red line in 2nd gear. GOOD GRIEF
And some of you guys think you need a Boxster S.....????
My advice is hire a base Auto Yaris for a week and see what you think then

As an aside and shameless plug, I've done a new song which features some nice video of New Zealand as well as a few other places if anyone fancies watching it. PLEASE. I'm trying to get all the way up to 50 views..... :ah:
