Looking to replace the z3 with one when the time comes. Though will be looking at a 3.2 Boxster S. fantastic to drive but those who don't know
better will its a poor mans 911.
I have looked at the s, but cannot justify the extra for insurance and fuel for not much more performance
The S is quite a bit quicker than the standard 2.7, don't just look at 0-60 times (though 6.3 to 5.5 is an impressive reduction at this level)
but also look at 0-100mph and standing 1/4; the S is a quick machine.
My (standard) Fiat Coupe would fairly easily out drag a standard 2.7 but the S would edge ahead.

thats fair enough, but i have a 310bhp kit car for speed
plus the s is £300 more in insurance for myself, and the mpg is better for the 2.7
would love a s though!
