I doubt it.
I'm curious, why?

Your post seems really aggressive, like anyone was saying that a 3.2L 911 could take a late model boxster S. I don't think anyone here mentioned that or thinks that, and if they do, then they are silly, naive, and/or uninformed.

I'm pretty sure that all of us (or at least most of us) would agree that the new boxsters (987, I think, 997 is the 911) and even the later model 986 models would wipe up a 3.2L Carrera. I'd say that the only boxsters that a stock 3.2L Carrera stands a chance against are the early boxsters with the 2.5 and 2.7, and even then, it only has a chance in a drag race. Even the early boxsters would probably spank a STOCK 3.2L car in the corners and braking.

I'm pretty sure that the OP said that it wasn't one of the newer boxsters, but was one of the older 986 style cars.
