Im a few years away from paying off my daily driver Mazda and looking for a fun convertible. I’ll be looking no more than 23k$ so my question is are the early 2000s Boxster worth it? Are they fun to drive? Or should I look for something else. I had a 944 turbo 20 years ago and I freaking loved that car. I’d love to have a Porsche again but 911s are probably out of my price range

    I just bought a 2024 Boxster S based on my experience with my family’s Boxster from the 1990s. My family has had Porsches (911s) from mid 60s till today. I learned to drive when I was 14 in a 911. But the two cars I enjoyed most are the Alfa Romeo roadster from prior 2000 and the Boxster. I love the roadster type cars.

    The Mazdas are hugely underrated. Alfa Romeos dont sell roadsters in US right now, so I was deciding between MX5 and Boxster (I dont want any comments on this!!! I really liked the MX5). I had my wife drive both thinking she would tell me to get the MX5 just becaise of price. But no. She just looked at me like “are you crazy, get the Boxster.”

    So yes. Go for it. And have fun.
