Since the 550 spyder anniversary edition Boxster actually has more hp than the base 986S (but not much), and lighter weight, I wonder if it performs almost as well as the 987S. Anyone know? Anyone driven both of them?

i just traded in my anniversary for a brand new s......the old one was stiffer as the new one with the pasm makes it a little softer but still very firm around corners. the new muffler is better sounding.....the tranny/shifter is better now.....as the engine isn't broken in yet i can't say much for the performance.....i like the new color better (black) than the silver......

I amazes me how many folks have a Boxster S and a Turbo in the same garage. Fitable, which did you have first?

.....i traded the turbo for another car that i won't mention...but yes i had the 03 turbo x50 and the 04 boxter s at the same time for a while.....both very fun but different cars and i chose to stay with the boxter because of the daily driver fun factor...the turbo was a beast on the highway but i don't do too much of that anyways. i had a 02 cab for a while and a 96 turbo which i traded in for the 04 turbo x50.....i've had other porsches as well but i don't usually keep them more than a year....yes i have issues that i won't get into!....guess i like to drive em for a while but don't like to keep em too long....we'll see how long i keep this 05 boxter s. if anyone wants to see pics i can try and post (but i've never posted pics before).....
