I am 17... Should I consider buying a Boxster? (Yes I have my license)

[78F350]

17 or 70, I really don't see the difference in what should be considered for buying a Boxster. It may be the right car for you personally, or it may not. Finances, expectations, and which particular car you buy will make all the difference rather than your age. There's a lot of good advice on buying the right car already scattered across this forum. Read it, then ask your questions.

The answer is "it depends"

My first car was a 914 with a bad clutch.

I learned to fix stuff on that car.
I had a blast in that car.
You can fit one bad decision making guy and four girls in one.

I also walked/took the bus a lot while waiting for parts and funds for parts.

If you can afford to waste a bunch of time and money on a car, get the one you want.
If you can't, get a honda civic or something.

At the time, with my busted up dirty hands and long walks, I regretted my 914 about 75% of time.
In retrospect I'd go back to that car and those days in a minute.
