Both seem much the same price these days, what would you spend your money on and why, pro's and cons of both?

Thanks
Mark

Neither, sorry. 968 cs or 964 for me at this price point.

I guess that's not helpful!

Just sold my 02 996 C2 so am biased but loved loved loved that car. You need to drive both to understand the pros and cons of each, 2 different drives.

Do you want a 911 with 2 small rear seats, or do you want a 2 seater convertible, drive both they are different, I've owned and enjoyed both. What you have to remember is the Boxster is not a 911 and unfortunately everyone tends to remind you of this, however the Boxster is an absolutely fantastic 2 seater sports convertible so if that is what you want who cares what others think or say!!!

Echo the above 2 posts. I went from 996 C4 to Boxster Spyder.

Mr Chalk, meet Mr cheese.

You need to drive both.
