    Of course, he shouldn't care for one second what other people think. Certainly not what some internet warriors say.

    What I do wonder is why people always want "good handling" cars. What are you going to do with it that it needs better handling then a normal car? If you're not racing it you'll hardly feel the difference.

    Maybe he prefers a pickup truck or an SUV. You know, something that manly men drive. Maybe he's got an H3 Hummer!

    ,

    Lately it seems all I see in Mercedes are gays and old women...even the gay and old women are turning their noses up on Beemers

    the 911 seems to have become something of a family car, with mom and pop in front, and the kids stuffed in the back

    and the housewives are driving the Hummers around like they used to drive the mid-siz SUV

    and the cute chicks are all in pick up trucks and real tight pants

    Bottom line:
    A real man drives an old beat up F250, diesel 4x4........or a motorcycle.....

    I saw a Deadhead sticker on a Cadillac...

    Buy the Boxster, Tannat... and drive it like you stole it every chance you get.

    Enjoy life. It's later than you think.

    Lot of interesting input on the Boxster, as well as other connections with gender role identity and what you drive..

    Given some thought I guess I am guilty of it to some degree-don't think I could ever let myself drive the VW New Beetle....

    Tannat, if you really wan't the Boxster, just get it and enjoy it! Some people (myself included here) may think you are gay, but at least you will be enjoying yourself.

    I love Scoobies like there's no tomorrow, hot Impreza's to be precise, and just because I drive them people think I'm a crazy arsed nutter who doesn't give a sh!t about anyone else on the road. But on the contrary, I am your average Joe who just loves arriving at his destination with an ear bleed compliments of a WRX burble!

    Get it tannat, and %&$# what the world has to say about it (me included). Just don't get a pink one
