Fantastic cars. My 986 got 30 MPG on the highway, was dead reliable, and was in many ways better to drive than a 911. Having driven my dad's 2012 Miata with a 6-speed and sport package, I can assure you that the Boxster is more car in every way. The trunks are actually very practical, true you cannot carry big items but there's more storage space than a 911. The one you linked to is priced pretty well for a 987S assuming that it looks good in person, all I could see in the pictures was some wear to the climate control knobs. The 987 has a nicer interior and more power, but just be aware that the same money will buy you a mint and very low mileage 986S. Try for a 2003+, they got a heated glass rear window that won't eventually fog over and crack like the earlier plastic ones.
