From a 2.5 Boxster owner's side of the conversation (which would be me), I'd tell you to save more money and get an S, ignoring all the non-S models you come across. The power difference is huge and you'll never regret buying an S, but you may well regret buying a 2.5 or a 2.7 when SUV's overtake you and in an S you would have blown them away.

Even the 2.5L has a 0-60 af about 6 - 6.5 seconds if I remember right. There shouldn't be many SUVs out there that can take it.

One of my my family members "on the job" indulges me on occasion, once the Boxster reaches 100+ it's a rocket. I don't know of many other cars that can cruise @115 and still negotiate twisties.

I am more then happy with my 2.5... Fast enought for me.. The fun isn't in straight line speed but the corners, oh those corners..

I got my 2.5 up to 143 mph the other day. I was trying to catch my wife in her minivan.
