I wouldn't consider it a poor man's porche. I'm with others on here who have indicated they prefer it over a 911. I had the option to purchase either model and could not bring myself to get the 911 because I thought the boxster had a sexier look to it. I love the body style and I LOVE the handling. I've owned it for over a year and have put over 20k miles on it. Just oil, air and brakes/rotors. the cheap ceramic brakes and rotors drilled and slotted off of ebay for just over $200...they are working/wearing great. I get compliments from people of all ages and walks. The comments that get me the most are those from some of my redneck buddies who say, "you must get paid the big bucks", and yet they are driving a new diesel pickup that they paid 3-4 times what I paid for my used Porsche and they are still and will be making payments on theirs for years to come. My was low enough in cost that my wife just had me pay in full rather than financing. We love it. I don't really care what anyone else says about it. They don't know what they are talking about.
