Hi Frank,

LA is where image is everything when it comes to cars (and just about 
everything else) and people will buy/lease beyond their means to 
maintain it. In the pecking order Boxters are looked down upon by 
Cayman S, 911 and Carrera GT owners. I'll leave the image game to them. 
I enjoy having a relatively inexpensive car to maintain that's fun to 
drive. Wouldn't want a Porsche. Today it's sunny, 63 F, and with the 
top down I'll be driving on PCH past Malibu for lunch. What could be 
better?

Robert

Hi Robert,
Boxters common!!!!!! Hardly anybody could afford one round here, mind
you they are quite a bit cheaper in the US but still rather dear
surely? The lightest boxter is 1.3 tons.
