I know that the Boxster S isn't a drag car, but it is still fun to race with other cars in the straight.

As for Japanese vs German build quality, i have to say Japanese cars are better build in terms of reliability. Sure the German have leather here and there and it makes everything look nice, but Japanese car are so damn reliable and hard to break down. We have 2 Porsches at home and 2 Jap cars and they are just so damn reliable. I know a few friends that have Cayenne and X5 and i heard lots of electric problems that they encounter or other sort of problems. Where as my 4runner ltd just keep on running and running even at 270,000km on it. Not a single problem, no electric failure and no mechanical failure as well. I will have to say Japanese over German for build quality.
Highway drag racing is illegal and puts yourself and others in danger.

What about that is "fun" to you?

Grow up and stick to the track.
