They're great cars for the money.

And how many of you have driven a Boxster?
The handling is class leading.

So you drove what in essence is the bottom of the range. Even there bottom of the range is a bloody good car!

Maybe as you dont have experience of driving the other cars you should change your statement to a less blanketting one?

Agreed with Doug Boxters are good cars regardless of image.

You can't slate a Boxter if in essence you drive a Corsa

why does everyone expect the boxster to be as fast as something like a 911? its not made to be fast as hell or a sports car. its made to look good, be quickish and handle well, this it does very comfortably.

although it is a very gay lookin car which is why im ditchin mine

Elise is such a great car for the money though, it depends in which way you look at it, people might rate them as quick cars and someone will class them as underated because in reality they arent that quick. All round though they are great and well worth the money these days.

Haven't drove or be in a boxter.
But driven a 997?? 911 and was amazed in the grip etc
Then the owner toook me out and nearly sh*t my self. He uses it every day. Could you do that with a ferrari etc?

iv owned an elise wasnt overly impressed except for the actual hndling , power was dispointing. 911 felt you like were driving on a cloud of wool, boxster i lke but i have an automatic, tomorow im going to get a tvr 350t hopefully i shall stck with it

i would love a big power corsa, 106 rallye but you just cant justify the money on something that is just a vauxhall/ peoget at the end of the day. indeed respect to those that do it though
