For the price. The 355 Berlinetta Spyder is my all time dream car. But I digress... Thanks!

The most surprising part is the curb weight difference is only 90 lbs, even though the Boxster is much bigger on the inside and out. S2000 sounds good in VTEC, but the flat-6 is in another league. The only part I don't like about the car is the (oem short) shifter. It feels like crap, but obviously I'm spoiled by the S2000's shifter.
