Skip NAV and use your phone, total = $72,000
5.5 sec 0-60 is dog slow.

Besides I'd never own a base model Boxster.

The flat 6 is glorious... so regardless it's sad they are gone.
"Dog-slow" for what? Driving on regular roads with 45 mph speed limits or on highways with 70 mph speed limits. The Boxster is one of the most fun cars to drive, and on twisty roads, it will run circles around many cars that post sub 5 second 0-60 times.
