THE most predictable retarded sheep following answer in the world. Let me guess, not driven one?
I've driven a few boxsters.
Great chassis, great handling, smooth relaxed ride yet sharp when you need it. Engine could do with some more umph, but great cars..
Aye, becuase £40k is certainly a "cheap" car.. What do you drive again????
Out of every1 saying what i did,why did u quote mine and not them all???
As previously said,more and more like the Gti-R OC.
P.S i drive a corsa that would probably give a Boxter a hard time on the road.

I VERY much doubt it (yes i've had a stripped XE, and still have a LET).... Sure in a straightline (BOOORING, so hard to plant a foor, so much skill, can't contain sarcasm.... ). Corner? Adios anything vauxhall.
Why did I quote?
Well its the first reply I got to with such a sheep like comment. After reading the rest of the post, its confirmed.
Baaaaaaaaa

Ahh yes.
150bhp Vs 240bhp
FWD Vs RWD
Millions spent on devlopment, Vs £1500 fitting kit and suspension in home garage.
Damn, I knew I went wrong somewhere

Well we ran well into mid 3 figures, with the roof down, in 2.5......
We have trouble in a LET corsa, let alone an XE.
Dude, stop digging the hole, walk away

And??Ive ran into mid 3 figs in my old V6 GSI.Dosnt mean i was doing that speed.Oh and on an open road it wasted a boxter.Driver was pissed off to say the least.
And did u just say your LET corsa struggles against a 2.5 boxter??Me and you both know thats bullshit.Unless u have a shit slow corsa.

Only driven one Boxster.........Lee Mannings old one. We swapped cars for 20 mins at Brunters a few years back........he was in my old 2.1 throttle bodied Corsa and I was in his Porsche.
Straight line, there was nothing in it.........everything else and the Porsche anihilated me!! You cant even compare the two cars!!!
I dont think I would have one but I do like them!!! Of course if you had the money you would go for the 911 but thats a totally stupid statement.
If you like them, go for it!!!

Yes but MR2s and Lotus's have been mentioned so why not bring the 2.5 into the conversation.
2.5 boxter has 205bhp,does 0-60 in 6.5 secs and the 1/4 in 14.7s
3.2 boxter s has 260bhp,does 0-60 in 5.5 secs and the 1/4 in 13.7s
Now i dont care what any1 says,the 2.5 with those times are slow.

One thing tho...............look at maintenance/repair costs before you take the plunge!!! Not got a clue how much they will be for a Boxster but the name Porsche worries me!! Lol!

Not slow,but at the price tag you pay for a Porsche you would want it to be quicker than a £3k corsa.
Buy a TVR instead.

Not really.
Ok, I can buy a bike for £2000 that'll do 160+mph and will wipe the floor of any corsa that hasn't had a few K chucked at tuning it.
Its about a viable argument as yours Corsa Vs Porsche.
Honestly, your making yourself look really REALLY dumb. Back out while your behined. Take it as advice.
