I have been lucky enough to have driven quite a few Porsches recently [993 turbo / 996 turbo / GT3 clubsport and RS / GT2 currently getting modded by Weltmeister after being embarrased by a certain Datsun...hehe / 700HP RUF monster] and they have all impressed but I rate the Boxster 3.2S over all of them for pure driving enjoyment. The poor mans Porker tag will probably be ever present when folk who have not driven one refer to the Boxster [and Cayman] and I was guilty of the same......THEN I drove one and I'm well and truely hooked. Good time to buy at the moment with the poxy weather
Sometimes driving a car is better than reading the figures, I love my car even though it would be beaten in a straight line by an RST with the same money spent on mods as I spent on the car. The whole package springs to mind
