You mean to tell me that the only factor for not getting a Boxter was the plastic rear window?????? I suppose you wouldn't want a Ferrari convertible because it

Wow, this topic sure got out of control fast. Shame really, as it's a perfectly reasonable question.

I would not trade my S for a Boxster if it were even steven. I would; however, trade it for a Boxster S. IMO, the Boxster S is a nicer car and more to my personal liking. It's just not $20,000 nicer.

Give me one for free though and now you're talking. I could even live with the exhorbidant (sp?) maintenance costs at that point.

Wow! I knew that this would be a provocative question, but I never dreamed it would turn into an historical, geopolitical controversy. All politics aside, good to know S2K owners are true to thier cars. 8 days and counting till my Blk on Blk arrives.

Agreed. There is some good info & opinions (about S2Ks vs. Boxsters) in this thread. It would be ashame to close it down. Let's try to keep on subject.

Its harmful for you to call them nazis??? NO WAY! Whats harmful, is that they are still in buisness!
Porsche was not even in business at the time of WWII. Hitler commisioned a "People's Car" (Volkswagon) and that was DESIGNED by Ferdinand Porsche.

To call present day German people "Nazis" is quite offensive and should not be tolerated here.

I believe the comments made by MHK S2000 and TKG 26 accurately sum up the extent of your intelligence. Calling someone stupid and a Billyboinger? is further evidence. This subject is a dead issue for me. No more posts. Just a sore subject from a thoughtless person.

I like and respect the Boxster S very much. I would own both if I could. But I doubt I would trade my S2000 for it. But there is a 'commonality' (I don't even know if that's a word) about it that I find boring. I'm sure other SoCal owners here can relate.......you see Boxsters here not everyday, but every minute.

Just my .02cents

Didn't think it would be a regional thing. Seems that places that have a lot of Boxsters have folks that enjoy the relative "exclusivity" of the S2K. Seems like Boxsters have become quite commonplace in certain areas of the country.
