You didn't consider trying to save to get a used 987 S for maybe a 5 grand more than that?

Considered it, but I remember seeing the Anniversary Edition cars in the dealership and thinking how much I liked them. I actually prefer the 986 interior and I'm not going to sweat the 6.1% HP and 3.1% power deficit to the 987 S.

I do know the differences, and honestly, with tax, shipping and broker transaction money (I've got a guy taking care of all the paperwork and stuff), it's a lot closer than you think.

By the way, I tried optioning an '07 Boxster S to have similar features as the Anniversary Edition (Cocoa seats, painted center console, aluminum and leather features, painted wheels, GT Silver paint, sport exhaust, power heated sport seats, Bi-Xenon headlights, short shifter) It was an $80k car.

I could have had a lot of different cars for this kind of money. I just chose the one I liked the most!
