Ok clearing out the stable and getting new, "used" , cars for the driveway..

Know a local dealership so "borrowed" a couple of cars for the weekend..

'03 miata BTDT nice but no HP

'03 S2000.....now that was fun... high reving, good street handling, cabin a bit small but I'm 5'8'' so no issues.. vtech kicks in around 6000 rpm, rumor has it , and 90 at 9000 in 3rd... rumor has it!!?? push button start and electric top.....

or

Boxster 2.7... drove one while ago with a tip, nice car, larger, more truck room, more cabin space, handled great..

So questions who has one of the above. What are the gotcha's on the boxster, maintaince costs??? to be driven only 10-15k per year.
