If you had to trade your boxster
What car would you trade your boxster for? A realistic trade, something within its price range.

Oh, in that case, nothing  Maybe an Exocet (Ariel Atom style exoskeleton car built on a Miata running gear)

My thoughts exactly!
But since the price is way above the boxster, I'm never parting with her. The 996TT/GT3 will become her brother instead

Somebody on here got a 996TT for $29K I think, I can't think of the name, and Trendy996 has one too I think. I got a ride in one at the track by someone that really knew how to drive, holy $%^&*

Exactly....
The correct answer for the number of cars to have is always, n + 1....
For me, my next car that will sit next to the Boxster will be an F348ts, and then maybe another Corvette. Who knows.

My sons have been after me to get a new Corvette.
What is the comparison like between the Boxster and the Corvette other than pure power? The Vette seems so much bigger and heavier.

I had a C6 for a while. The Corvette gives so much more torque and power than the Boxster. That being said, the Boxster handles so much better.
Corvette is coming out with a mid engined version soon, and that may really tip the scales...
Also, from an affordability standpoint, the Corvette is much easier on the wallet....
Different cars...I like them both....for different reasons. LOL.

Wouldn't mind trying a Cayman but I can't afford another Raby engine ! So I will stick with the beast .

Most likely, another Boxster. Best sports car I've ever owned. Still as much fun as the day I bought it 9 years ago.
Thing is, the few times I've considered selling mine and buying another, one of my major reluctances is getting rid of the known for the unknown.

Easy, Boxster worth 2-10k, nothing in that price range comes to mind as being equally fun and I have other fun, cheap cars that have their own attributes but just not parting with the Boxster till I step up to a newer one, maybe.

Same value? ND Miata
Trading up? 2017 Land Cruiser or maybe a Lexus LC500
Trading down? NC Miata

'09 Cayman S, with sports chrono, and PDK transmission with paddle shifters.
And I'm referring to a car that wouldn't break the bank.
Just sayin'..................
