The car is still brand new!Im holding strong at 16975...bought the car on 2/28/03!
Talk about putting some miles on the car! Im probably one of the select few to put that many miles on a TT in only 10 months.

Do you need the room offered by the E? If not then you can replace it with a TT and be OK. If you need room then you must decide if you enjoy the Boxster enough to prevent you from getting a TT. If you've made up your mind in getting rid of the Benz, then do it and see how the Boxster does as your DD. I think you will know then.
I thought of the E55, but I think the love for the turbo is more than just flat-out acceleration. There's a visceral feeling, an enjoyment of the handling, the sound of a sports car - the E55 is just an ungodly fast luxury sedan. The E500 is pretty zippy too, with 302 (underrated, IMO) hp, but it's also about the fun factor. If I thought I wouldn't miss the top-down tossability of the Boxster, I'd get rid of it and go for the turbo and keep the E500, but I think I'll miss it too much...of course by the time I figure that out, the E500 will be gone. Southern CA is just the perfect place for a roadster.
Red Devil - I thought I'd need the room of the E, but it was mainly as a substitute family car, when we simply chose to use it instead of the Audi. I've picked up clients in it one time over a year, and that was also by choice - I dont' think I need the sedan, but of course when I get rid of it is when I'll realize if I needed it or not...
