First things first. Since you're happy overall with your Box experience find out if S would do the job, then look elsewhere. It looks more like you're bored by the Box in general and would like a taste of something different. Nothing wrong with that.

I've thought about this too and really there's nothing out there that really seems like an upgrade if you are trying to stay in the roadster category without spending a much bigger amount. Before the Boxster I was leaning toward an S2000 (which I think is as good as the BoxsterS just kind of dull looking). Reliability is very important to me.
If you are looking to get out roadsters and into coupes or GT's then there are plenty of options. I'm looking at 2nd hand CaymanS or a 2002-2004 911 Turbo.
I'm a fan of the Z4 Coupe but there are just too many good deals on Pcars nowadays to opt for a Bimmer.
But I can't see myself in a tin top on a warm summer day and having two sports cars seems excessive to me....Tough choice but I can honestly my BoxsterS may be the best sports car I ever own.

hmmmm i would say anything audi.......
i have thought about this, and people have asked, what i would buy next.
not too much that compares to the boxster, without having to spend over $100,000.
sorry that mg looks like a 2 door jetta, and pretty awful looking.
i would only consider a cayman, but it seems that you want a roadster.
so pretty much you have to keep the boxster or put in another $100, 000 and
get the 997 or ahhhh used turbo.
no substitute

Hi,
I don't know where you get Jetta looking at it, but to each his own. Now, Audi's do have the Jetta look, similar DNA I suspect. But, the Cayman is just another Boxster with a fixed roof...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

I don't see a Jetta either. It does look a lot better top down than up. But I think that same thing about the Boxster too.

The MG looks like a Volvo and an ugly one at that.
To each their own!
