I've driven both in several different generations of their development and with the exception of a very well set up XKR, the Boxster is by far more fun to drive. Of course, even and old XKR set up that way would run twice the cost of a decent boxster. The thing that has me split is the interior and ride quality while cruising. It's night and day between the two...

I just did a rough pricing of what I could immediately see wrong and at the prices I get from the dealer (lower than Geico can) it's over 6k in damage (their price will be closer to 9).....plus paint.....and labor, so likely the repair bill the adjuster sees will be somewhere in the 15-17 range....The cars only realistically worth 14-15 at a dealer in this market.
