i'd have to say that in my opinion, the boxster S is not an overated car. a friend of mine has one and that is a nearly perfect machine. smooth acceleration, spot on handling, good looks, convertible, and a reputation.
and i'd rather have a 10 year old porsche and have someone think i was rich, than a 10 year old Ford and have someone think i was crazy. :rolleyes: (keep in mind i am 3 years 'til "crazy") :p
sorry, my 2 cents...
