Miatas are really fun to drive but I always consider them Chick cars; somehow men don't seem to fit the car's profile.
You did !!!!!!! where did you find that BS from bro ? why don't you ask all mostly men drivers who own, drive and track almost all the Miatas on the road ? By the way Julian, what is considered a 'chick' car. Pink ?

I find it interesting that no one asked if it was manual or automatic. Perhaps this was assumed as most who "drive" these class of cars [two seater sports cars] particularly the ones mentioned in this thread like to shift?
The PDK is a shiftable 6 speed dual clutch “automatic” transmission. You can put it in gear and go or work your way through the gears using paddle shifters on the steering wheel.
Also the boxer is an entry level Porsche, the 911 is its cooler faster more expensive big brother. Boxter and Cayman are mid engine and are perfectly balanced front to rear so more forgiving than the rear engine 911 in very aggressive cornering. 911 is much more expensive.

I have a neighbor has three of them. One of them is he races and it’s not street legal. He also has a Camaro. This kid has won the short track record fastest speed three times and is currently the holder at Sebring Florida.

Sorry about your Boxster jc but the 911 is one great looking car. I had a 1999 Boxster. Wife said it was to expensive to maintain in retirement. Man I miss that car.

My wife said the same thing. Especially after I spent $12,000 rebuilding the engine I didn’t even get 150 miles out of it. But the long 11 is a fantastic car and my wife likes it because it’s an automatic.

A month ago a lady in Lakeland Florida sideswiped me (her fault) totaled my 1999 Boxster (986) Last Sunday I purchased this 911 (991) 2013.
My wife and I absolutely enjoy it.

Must be something in the air, I had a similar experience also about a month ago. Twice in the same day, on the way to work and on the way home, some defective entity just had to be in front approaching a left turn light and hit me, second time hard enough to total me.
Wasn't as classy a ride as you, just my old '97, reliable, seen better days Nissan pickup. Thanks to insurance I now have a '06 Acura TSX. I think I came out ahead.
Interestingly this is not the first time I've been totaled like this, but I always seem better off vehicle wise. A few more and maybe I'll work my way up to a Boxster. Think the insurance company would notice
