I agree 
That's 3475k a yr., 1737k a mo., 435 mi. a week, 62 mi. a day and 31 miles one way trip....for 8 years that you've own it 
No wonder you bought the Benz' coz you haven't experience the real power behind the seat of the Boxster  j/k 
I have a TIP Box and last weekend, while driving, I put it on Sports Mode and after clearing every turns, *I let it shift by itself at 5k rpm...wohooooo
*thanks to the D/E Instructor who said that I could do that on the TIP Boxster
