Firstly, what is the difference? Well, most people I've met can't tell the difference between a Boxster and a 911 much to the chagrin of 911 drivers and the joy of Boxster drivers.
1st review is about old 250bhp 2.7l S. Newer one is 3.2l 260hp.
2nd review is only a Boxster not S but still a great review to read and is very factual.
Simon.

There are loads more regarding the individual vehicles but not "vs" eachother... would take hours to scour for them. As for one review being old... yes it is but then both vehicles have grown up anyway.

I still know the most involving car to drive is the 2Wd mid engine sports car, not the 4 door jap saloon with a peasants interior.

Im too busy hanging on to the steering wheel and looking out of the windscreen with a huge grin on my face to worry whether my cars interior has plush leather and wood trim... [Edited by Soulgirl - 8/15/2003 6:01:12 AM]

and you by these type of cars to worry about an interior, F**** me then,
Go buy an M3 because your first choice was obviously shi**
as the interior being ****e, what do you think a guy driving a BENTLY Arnarge T thinks of yours
if interior is all your worried about you definatly made the wrong choice in car. Also there happens to be a difference in price between these cars, I have no doubt if you handed 35 - 40k to Scooby Doo you'd get a better interior finnish,
but they know thats not what a scoob driver cares about,

Oh and just to retort,
elaborate on you'd know a thing or two about both cars, if you own both the good for you, but that isn't going to impress a site of IT Proffesionals, Stock Brokers, and individuals who own their own buisness's is it.

at the end of the day, nothing more satisfying than to kill the poor man's porsche from the lights in your rice rocket - the look on their face!
how about some wet, bumpy twisties? bye bye boxster!
From SIDC FAQ:
Bye bye boxster!

From SIDC FAQ:
The 30-70 mph increment was achieved in 5.6 seconds (a whole 1 second faster than a manual Porsche Boxster!)

I personally don't give a flying one whether you Porsche drivers think that your car is better than an Impreza.
To me my '93 WRX is my pride and joy and I'm 43 so no boy racer, it is a fun car, fast enough and doesn't break the bank to own it!
My WRX to me is just as valuable as I am sure your Porsches are to you, put it into perspective, not all of us are fortunate to own cars that break the £20k barrier.
Owning my WRX is a pleasure! Would I like to own a Boxster, No I wouldn't! Just a personal preference that's all!
G@zz@

PMSL LOL the statement about he owns a Porsche Blah Blah,
No I must refrain NO NO NO sorry cant do that, you own a far from perfect Porsche you own a hairdressers car, a wannabe's but never will be car,
the boxster is a car for people that suit it properly twa** who cant afford a 911 who like to boast to make up for their inadequate manhood .
what's the cost difference between an STI-8 PPP whit 4.5ks worth of tuning kit not much,
I'll tell you one big difference you'll never ever be anywhere near the Scooby straights or bend **** me you'll have to buy your own plane, but sorry you couldn't afford a jumbo you' just have to borrow the Wright brothers incarnation, because you'd probably beleive that's the next best thing.
Right now I have got that of my chest I'm welling up in fear from your next witty retort,
face facts you bought your car because you have been misguided into thinking that boasting about it will give you respect,
when in fact you have caused the opposite and have tarnished yourself with a bad image which some 3 series drives carry around with them M3 excluded,
I have seen many a Boxster S be left behind, and as for image, go to Buckhurst Hill where every second car is a blim'n Boxster.
I'm not saying it a piece of sh** but I'm also saying you can't pass judgement on a new scoob WRX the way you have especially on a scooby Forum what did you expect the replies were going to be ???
Oh yes we love you we only dream about Boxsters on here

a thread here for those of you who are responsible enough to talk on a mature and very high level of consideration to others, especially people who think they are better than you because of their choice in car.

Now you lesser car owners are assuming I have a Boxster, I don't, I have never said I did. I have a Porsche it is not a Boxster, but you are welcome assume it is quicker than your cars.
I just happen to think Boxsters are good cars, as are most cars that Porsche produce.

Kids, and you think the average age of a scoob owner is ???
Do you reckon you could cream an
STI-8 PPP with Autronics SM2 and goodies to bring max BHP to 350 at the Fly given weather conditions and and 25% Anti-Lag Cycle also upping the boost to peak at around 1.5 bar,
The car hasn't got the SM2 fitted yet, but will be having it installed when we find a fitter near by and decent RR for mapping.
When you say lesser car, please explain in further detail, give some details to backup your wild claims otherwise you have no ligitimate reason to make such a sweeping satement.

Stop me if I am wrong but I am beging to think that you have no Porsche or performance car,
maybe a hatchback of some sort, but you feel reassured that your spotty teen ridden face can be disguised behind a monitor and keyboard,
please let me refrain from anymore guessing, and if your not why do you feel the need to prove yourself again and again, if you are happy in your choice of car I would have thought an educated man would realise that trying to win a battle that can never be won has LOST !! or is your pride to hard to swollow,
or is merely entertaining to you, because I'm sure your entertainmant can be maintained by extra curriculur activities such as your right hand and you autotrader magazine.
I so sorry did i just type that, please forgive me, I have no idea what just came over me,

Average age of Scooby owners on this site is probably about 25.
But does that really matter?
I am amazed that people still find things to say on this thread.
I will conclude with this...
...for a man not like a Porsche is like saying you do not like women...
