Hi,

#1 It started as an small aside by me in the main forum that attracted some interest so I split it out.

#2. It's the other way round, I'm getting a Cayman not a Boxster.
With the hood down the Boxster is gorgeous but with the hood up the Cayman wins hands down. If this was a weekend only car used on nice days then I think I would have gone for Boxster ... open top motoring etc. However, for a daily driver in all British weather conditions then the Cayman wins for me.
Better looking, more secure, more focused handling.

Now if Porsche made a 718 Coupe/Convertible (Targa) variant that would be tempting (additional weight / performance hit accepted).

Regards,
Carl
