Seriously? Your bleep stinks. You mean like that? Hehe.

Mine was the PG version compared to your rated R .

Looks like you're my neighbor in Dana Point! I'm in the Ladera Ranch area.

I got a guy who drove BMW said it's cool and another guy who drove Camry said it 's lame so I don't know who to believe.

The new Boxsters are amazing, serious rival to the 991. I actually prefer it to the base 991. But the 987.2 is a great car too. I'll be honest and say I hated the original Boxster (first release ever) but they have only gotten better and better. Which one are you looking to pickup

I 100% agree, I couldn't have said it better myself.

I never liked them until recently, I would say pre 987 was pretty ugly. but anything 987 or above look much better

I have to say if I keep my Boxster more than a few years it will be very tempting to drop a 3.4 engine in and do a spyder conversion. (If I have the $$) But I can't justify the annoyance of losing the easy up/down of the top for colder weather.

Yes. They're cabriolets so racers don't really consider them a true sports car (even though the Carrera GT was an open ****pit I know) and they're the entry-level Porsche. But hey that's just my opinion and in the grand scheme of life it really doesn't matter what I think. If you like your Boxster that's all that matters.

Right. All the open-wheel racers be damned!! F1 cars, Indy cars, Shelby Cobras, Formula Fords, Radicals, KTM, Lotus 7, and on and on and on.

BIG . Crazy.
