Are you on the waiting list? It's a 2.7 987, but it really is fast enough for me!!! Boxster does 0-60 in 5.8 while the S does it in 5.4, so not too much difference. Fast enough for me though!! :)

For sure. I wasnt as keen on the 986 but the new one is just that little bit more agressive as you say.

I love the car - I'd love to get one but too pricey for me!

Ever the used ones are madly expensive.

I took it up to Ballater on Saturday!!! Had the top down all of today and have done 600 miles since new!!! Lovin' it! It's quite scary to drive fast and strange with the engine noise behind you! Watch out for the 9 month waiting list if you're placing an order though!

I dealt with Ross Hutchison. You might even be able to squeeze a couple of freebies - mats and the like if you push them ;)
