In NY don't even bother because you are going to get nailed eventually. Boxster handles like no other car in the market and is super quick. Top speed over 160 miles and hour. Only the newer 911 can top that and again not by much. The 986-987 will outhandle everything thats out there. I my assesment spending over 20K for an engine conversion is rediculous and insane. I have a 2003 S. Its fast, looks great and handles superbly what else do we need? Yes I know more power!  |
I understand what you're saying, but where on public streets can you really exploit the boxster's handling without being reckless? I'm talking pushing it close to the limit...not a "spirited" ride at 8/10th's on some twisty backroad which is still dangerous IMO.. HP is not all about top speed. It's about acceleration more than anything. People want to accelerate quickly because they find it enjoyable and fun. They want to go from 50-70 quicker! ....not 0-170mph.
