Mike has a Boxster S, and he's very happy with it.
Despite the girly image some might attribute to them, they are great handling, modern, fast and comfortable.
I'm pretty sure you'll like it, no, make that LOVE it. But go for a testdrive first, of course.
And what is more, they're cheap! Over here you can find a lot of low milage, well equipped 986 for not much money.
If I didn't have a company car, I'd be looking at Boxsters for sure!
Whaddoyamean, keeping the 911 forever?
