I can't understand what folks don't like about the Boxster. Even the base 1997, 2.5L model is way quick and handles like a sports car should. I've had the hots for a 993 for a while now but the 2005 Boxster S has taken its place in my dreams. So, besides the stigma that it's a hairdresser's car, is there any other reason to dislike the Boxster? I wish I could afford it now but I'll have to settle for an '03 S next year.

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/agree.gif) IMO the Boxter is a GT car, not a sports car. It asks too little of the driver. I am not a masochist, but the insular feeling of the Boxster (power seats, AC, power windows, etc..) make it less desireable to me. However, Porsche exists today because of Tiptronic, the Boxster and the Cayenne. Without the auto tranny, the lower end Boxter and the SUV, Porsche's fortunes might be drastically different and they may not be in the car business. - Joe |
