Nothing touches it for value, it's a big badge for not much money, real good value.

A bit early to tell yet, but major service is about £700 & minor £300ish.

Driving
Boxster is a real hoot, previously I had a modified Subaru WRX STI with over 320bhp which has done over 165mph with ease, thought the 2.7 Porsche would be snail pace, but I was nicely surprised! OK, not as quick as the STI - I prefer the Porsche.
Performance
Would be nice with more power, I'm thinking about the 3.2? Maybe next year! The 2.7 is nippy enough & puts a smile on your face when you boot it, it has got a bit of poke in it.

Living with it
Reliability
Again, too early to tell, but I hear they are with the best as far as reliability goes.
Image
Still looks fresh despite it's age, looks posh & is nice to be seen in, girls look and look.
Comfort
I'm 6ft 1, it's a bit small inside, seat is as far back as it can go.

Security
I hope the security never gets tested!
