servicing costs, cambelts, clutch etc...
i wouldnt be doing it myself like with the corsa, and i imagined that being a 'porche' that things werent going to be cheap.

Official porsche centre will be expensive............you wouldnt be taking a 10yr old one there though would you?
See if theres any decent independant places around your area & check servicing costs.

Im not saying its not a "good price" just that I wouldnt pay it, from experience ive paid insurance that expensive and it startes to get on your nerves once your bored of/used to the car. I just got a quote of £1246 FC, 22, 2 years NCB.

Buy one thats just been serviced Depends how long you keep it, it will be expensive to service but for good reason.

so would you have one over your ibiza?
Nope, would save up for a 911, 2 more seats for 2 more girls
A 911 wouldnt be an option for years, and i would probably opt for an M3. I would class the 2.5 boxter in the same class as a mx5 etc.
and as i said they are going for corsa C prices atm.

Ive taken a look at a couple 996 after seeing NovaGTE's & ive not been impressed with the ones ive seen.
10yr old 911 or 3yr old boxster - id rather a newer car.

Not at all, for what they are going for its a good car for the money IMO. (4-5K)
and im not bothered that you can get a faster car for the same money; if that even bothered me in the slightest i wouldnt have sold the french bag of poo for the corsa.
(awaits further posers car comments).......
