Hey everyone, I just got my first porsche and I love it. I was torn between an 09 Boxster S with the sport plus package/ sport exhaust/pdk, an 06 911 4s coupe sport s package, or trade in my current car and purchase a new panamera 4s pdk. I test drove all three and fell head over heels for the boxster, even though the 911 was cheaper.

It is a certified pre owned 2009 porsche Boxster S
Aqua Blue Metallic
Black Interior
10,000 miles
PDK
PCM with Navi
Sport chrono plus package in tandem with sport exhaust

It handles better then anything I have ever driven. I have taken it on every other great driving road from Caumset State park to the blue ridge mountain pass. I will be Driving it from D.C to the Pacific coast highway this summer.

I plan on keeping this car until porsche creates a better mid engine roadster.

The only complaint I have about this car is there should be a turbo version, if it were sub 4.0 sec to 100km it would be the perfect sports car.

Congratulations. I'm also on my first Porsche. If you have not done so, think about joining the Porsche Club of America and our local Region (Potomac Founders' Region) to get active in the community. High Performance Driving Clinics and Autocrossing are good ways to learn the capabilities of your P-car in a safe (and legal) environment. There are also many other social activities you can participate in to meet and learn from other enthusiasts.

Congratulations again!

Thanks mate! I will join the club this weekend when I have time to sit down and organize my thoughts. In the mean time I am busy daydreaming of how I can successfully get this car past 400 hp without messing with the cars internals/ride quality.
