When cruising along on the highway at close to max legal speed and suddenly a Boxster fills your rear view mirror do you:

sometimes they need to get beat down, other times it's just not worth the effort

I've never seen a Boxter anywhere, let alone in my rear view mirror.

However, I've seen seen lots of Boxsters, including some of them, briefly, in my rear view mirror.

Most Boxster owners could care less if you tried to race. Don't bother, race other Honda's/Acura's. In fact I feel we would look stupid trying to race someone who doesn't give a crap about racing. Race Mustangs or Camaros, who appreciate racing all day long.

Depends entirely on the road. A race on a flat road with good passing zones can be won by anyone with a right foot (helped along by an IQ shortage). Not my bag.

On the other hand, if this happened to me on, say, the Dragon, I probably wouldn't be able to resist.
