$25,000 for a 1998 Boxster... 20k miles... what do you guys think? I've been saving up for a car... was originally saving up for a Supra... but that particular movie ruined it and just jacked up all prices for that car every riceboy wants to get. :confused:... and the only Supra you'll get for $25k is one with 60k+ miles and up... :(

But it's a Boxster! :D Heh... well currently... seems like it's $350-400 or so every 15k miles... this won't be an everyday driver, that task is still for the 1990 4-door domestic car that was passed on to me... just a weekend fun toy... :) I wasn't one of those lucky bastards whose parents bought them a car when they graduated high school... so i've been saving up ever since... i'm about to graduate college in a year or so and maybe this is my little present for myself. :D

Keep in mind, just because you have enough money to buy something, doesn't mean you can afford it.

If insurance isn't a slut and you have some spare cash for repairs and another car as a daily, go for it!

And a proper investment/retirement plan that you will continue contributing to...

Since it is not your daily driver insurance shouldn't be too bad, and you won't have to worry about making sure it is running all the time, since you have another car. I would say go for it, I know I would if I was in your position.

yep.. if you wanna get beaten by a new turbo Neon don't buy one of those. :D

Don't even try to compare the two :D One is a slutty little piece of rental car trash, the other is pure German sports car which will own the FWD Neon at autocross or in the back roads (typically what a weekend car is used for).

Boxster screams class
Neon (of any variety) screams budget econobox with a crap interior

But one will drain your bank account faster than a ugly divorce...

You've got to pay to play :) But to compare a Neon to a Boxster is downright poor judgement :D

Insurance and any repairs would be very expensive. If you don't need a car, I'd make some wise investments.
