Im after your views. ive just sold my cerbera and now looking to get a boxster. ive got around 24k to spend at a push and was wondering whether i would be better off getting a 2.7 around 51plate or going for the 3.2S which would be a bit older.

Is the S that much better and quicker than the 2.7.
I had a 52plate 2.7 last year as a courtesy car for a while and whilst i liked it it didnt seem that quick.I appreciate that neither will be as quick as the cerby.

Do 3.2s hold better money than the 2.7s. Didnt do bad on depreciation on the cerb so was looking for something similar.


Also where would you recommend the best place to look. ive been looking on PH classifieds and autotrader/Tm and exchangemart, but is there any other good sites to look.

Cheers

Cheers for that fellas. I'll definately go for the S. Just need to find a black, blue or grey one at the right price and spec now

Done it. Bought myself a 3.2S, Dark blue on a 51 plate. Drove it back from exeter and you guys are right , it does handle far better than the Cerb.No where near as quick, but i wasnt expecting it.Seems like a nice car though. Just hope it lives up to my expectations.
One thing i did do that I now think was maybe a bit dodgey. Bought it off a liquidation company on Ebay without seeing it first. I must be mad
