Default New Boxster S vs 03/04 911

Hello all, Long story short, the 06 Boxster S that I bought was wreched by the porter loading the car before I took delivery. No other car can be found with the options I want, so I can order one for summer delivery, or while trying to sell me on a car on the lot I drove a 911 for the first time... nice car! so for about the same money, I can get a 03/04 911 cab or order a 06 Boxster S.

Comments?

Hi, welcome to the forum. Yeah, that's a tough decision you've got there! In my opinion, the 911 cab is the better car....but it's not brand new is it?

I'd cancel the order for the Boxster and put a new order in for a Cayman S. [sm=signs007.gif]

The 911 has about 14K miles.... The Cayman looks and sounds great, but I wanted the Boxster for the convertible top. The 911 is a cabriolet. The 911 is "certified" and comes with the extended warrenty.

I hate the idea of spending over 60K on a "used" car, but......

Well, its $60K for a car that cost new, what, about $90K? It is a difficult decision. If you really wanted the strict 2-seater, I'd order another and just suffer 'til it arrives. If you just wanted a convertible, I'd go with what is in hand.
