My 2002 Boxster S has a top speed per the factory of 161........nothing to sneeze at. I could care less what others think/say I love the car having a blast with it.

My lowly 1999 986 was more than adequate. They are fantastic cars.

My 97 is beyond fun and really all I need for a street car where I live. (neo-Nazi, revenue generating police state)

$76k for a Carrera-beater Cayman? Yep. I'd like mine in that dark metallic grey.

A good used Boxster would have to be the best bang for buck sports car out there. I had a 98 2.5 with factory M030 and 18" wheels. Man could that thing corner!!

I am still trying to figure out a way to get a 987 turbo transplant into my Cayman S without going broke. Unfortunaley I have to wait until it's paid off.
