I've just bought a 5 year old Boxster 3.4S and I absolutely love it. To the gent who found them dull all I can say is I doff my cap to you sir because you must be used pushing harder than I do to explore a car's limits and I am enthusiastic behind the wheel.
First impressions of fuel economy, really not too bad considering the performance on tap. Every day usability, I was surprised just how much stuff you can get in the two boots. Long items, forget it, but a weekly shop would be possible for the three of us.
Did I want a 911? Sure, who doesn't. If it had been my only car I could have justified the extra money but a 911 as a second set of wheels, nope. Having said that I very much doubt if a 911 would bring me back home with a bigger grin on my mug than the Boxster S.
A wise man once said "Were it not for cars this planet would be a useless ball of mud."
Much improved chassis and the engine out of the M3 evo so it goes like stink. Not the prettiest car, but I'm guessing you'll be driving it not admiring it
