those are just people who don't understand the history of cars. IF they really invoked thought into their words, they would soon find out that the boxster is really the actual porsche who has the most heritage in the porsche lineage in terms of design and mechanical expansion.

Never thought of Boxter as a car that doesn't live up to Porsche standards. Sure, the earlier models were underpowered by Porsche standards but it's still a balanced car and the S addressed the need for more speed.

Many also say the 996 is not real Porsche since it's water cooled. shrug!

Must be because they have small penises... small minded... small world... insecurities... small... small.. small.

Boxster is a sweet Porsche... the new one as well as the Cayman has really come into its own!

One guy called a boxster a "porsche with panties". Clearly, he has never driven one.....

i even had one guy say to me, why buy a Porsche SUV? why not get a real porsche? I just ignored his ignorant as$. These people know nothing about cars and talk way 2 much IMHO.

The same people also complain about my designer clothes. I simply told them, i do cuz i can. I don't need to explain anything to anyone to get approval of stamp.

I am really digging the new cayman as well.

I think it's just that some porsche owners are to stuck up and think that it's for people that "can't afford a porsche". But I love the new boxter and if anything, it is one of the few "true" sports cars out there.

i am going to test drive one this week.
I can conclude for myself. I have owned s2000 and that was a great roadster. Hope this one has the similar feel and a little bit more torque.

Raj,
The boxster S is an awesome car. Go feel the balance. If you get one, find one with the M030 suspension and 18" wheels. You'll know the true feeling of sports car.
