Not sure you can compare a new Boxster to a used 355. More than just the daily driver use the Boxster can get, there's a serious power deficiency that the Boxster will always have due to Porsche's market goals. Seems like it's always going to be the autocross favorite over a real performance car because of it.

BTW, I happened by a PCar specialist in Santa Monica called Foreign Sport. Along with fixing my CV boots (and doing a darn good job of it too), I noted they had a whole collection of Ferrari 355s and a 360 in the shop. Common malfunction? Electrical system gremlins. I guess wiring is something Ferrari's limited production run has a hard time fully bulletproofing.
