I bought an 03 boxster S, and was forced to refund my deposit due to an extension in production/delivery dates (6 months as starting jan1 03.). The boxster S is firstly $90,000 nicely equipped, (well almost fully equiped). The base trim looks very bland, and unspectacular. everything is optional, and the order book is 37 pages thick. It has been a called a porsche in panties, and a poor man's porsche, but nonetheless it is a porsche... It has the appeal, and driving feel like any other. Contrasting to that, the s2000 has virtually no options, and is a no nonesense formula 1 monster. people can knock the boxster in it's class, but the s2000 commends a no nonesense appeal. I know honda's like the back of my hand, and engine work is not intimidating. the boxster engine isn't even viewable for christ sakes. not to mention the check engine light comes on for everything (even low fuel)...
The s2000 was the first car I fell in love with, and I have no regrets about choosing it over the boxster, and the extra $40k on my pocket doesn't hurt either!!!
