  New one - 2006 Porsche Boxster
  By db65 - September 5 - 11:23 am

  I previously owned a 99 blk on blk Boxster in 04. That car blew an engine at 72k miles that cost me $12k to replace. Due to my passion (possible stupidity) I traded in for a 06 Arctic Silver Boxster fully loaded. So far, I have finally had the Porsche experience but miss some of the 986 raw elements. The new 06 is more refined and had the gadgets but lacks some of the 986 prowlness and agility. Overall, the Boxster cant be beat. Buy one and see for yourself what fun you can have.

  Sweet Car - 2006 Porsche Boxster

  My Boxster is a blast to drive. I cant wait to go on a long road trip! It takes a little while to get the engine noise off your mind, but the pipes on the exhaust let you forget about it once you get on the pedal.

  Fun, fun, fun, fun.......... - 2006 Porsche Boxster
  By FurnitureGuy - October 24 - 6:36 pm

  I traded in my BMW 330 for this great machine - passing up the BMW Z4. All it took was one test drive and I was hooked. Driving the twisties is as fun in this car as it is on my motorcycle! Top down, wind in my hair, the sweet music of the exhaust - could you ask for more? The BMW was comfortable, but this car rocks! We get a little bit of rain here in Oregon, so not having to stop to put up the top when it sprinkles is a plus.
